2007 FastTech 50

The 2007 Houston FastTech 50 program is accepting nominations for technology firms in Houston that are experiencing growth for its 2007 awards. The qualifications for this program are:

“To qualify for the FastTech 50, your company’s headquarters must be located in the Houston SMSA ten county area which includes Austin, Brazoria, Chambers, Fort Bend, Galveston, Harris, Liberty, Montgomery, San Jacinto or Waller counties. A minimum of 51% of your consolidated revenue must be involved in the original manufacture, design or development of technical products or services. Your company must also have net revenue of more than $200,000 for both 2005 and 2006. All nominations are subject to review by the FastTech 50 board.”

I have worked at several Fast Tech 50 companies, in Houston and San Antonio. This represents excellent PR for growing firms and generates a lot of visibility for startups. If you qualify, I highly recommend applying. The application can be found here.
