A project that annually showcases the fastest growing indigenous firms in the Welsh economy is going UK-wide.
The Wales Fast Growth 50, which in partnership with the Western Mail has since 1999 ranked the 50 fastest growing firms in Wales on revenue growth over the previous two years, will this year also have lists for other UK nations and regions - the east of England, London, the Midlands, the north of England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and the south of England.
The founder of the Fast Growth 50, Professor Dylan Jones-Evans, said: “Since we published our first list, we have seen the massive impact that the fastest growing firms in Wales have had on the economy with 701 businesses creating 55,000 jobs and generating £30bn of additional turnover, much of which is spent in their local area. In 2023, we are proud to be taking this important programme and series of events nationally as we believe it is important to highlight the impact that the best-performing businesses have on every nation and region in the UK.
