TORONTO, ONTARIO — (Marketwired) — 11/13/13 — is named as one of Canada-s fastest growing technology companies in the Deloitte Technology Fast 50 awards for technological innovation, entrepreneurship, rapid growth and leadership, based on the percentage of revenue growth over five years. TransGaming-s increase in revenues of 288 percent from 2008 to 2012 resulted in a 26 ranking.
“Canadian Fast 50 companies innovate, demonstrate leadership, create jobs, and invest in R&D,” said Richard Lee, Deloitte-s National Managing Partner, Technology, Media & Telecommunications. “They are remarkable companies that show dedication, drive and commitment that are key to growth in the Canadian technology sector.”
TransGaming CEO Vikas Gupta credits the company-s innovative and diverse product line of industry leading technologies, GameTree TV, the definitive, family friendly games on demand service; Swiftshader, the world-s fastest pure-software 3D rendering technology; and Cider, the company-s translation technology that enables PC games to play on Apple-s Mac platform, as the drivers of the company-s 288 percent revenue growth. Gupta said, “TransGaming is honoured to be named 26th on the list of Deloitte Technology Fast 50 awards and this is recognition of our unique product line and hard work over the past few years. Being part of one of the most exciting industry sectors has allowed us the chance to work with and license our technologies to some of the biggest corporations in the world. We are as enthusiastic as ever about the future of TransGaming and believe we are ideally positioned to take advantage of opportunities in the always evolving technology sector.”
