Fast 50 Lead and Deloitte partner, James Toomey, said: “The Deloitte EMEA Technology Fast 500 highlights the strength of Ireland’s domestic tech sector and the extraordinary abilities of our entrepreneurs. Even when benchmarked against the fastest growing tech companies from across a wide geographical sphere, Ireland, a small island of around 7 million people, has still got 20 companies in this list.
“Congratulations in particular to Wayflyer, Fibrus, Tines and Buymedia who are in the highest 100 ranked companies out of 500 and topped the list in our 2024 Fast 50 awards. We marked the 25th anniversary of Fast 50 in 2024 and it reminded me how intertwined the story of modern Ireland and technology is. Awards like these show that despite global uncertainty, the future for domestic tech growth in Ireland is bright and we must continue to support these companies to grow Domestic Direct Investment (DDI).
“I look forward to opening applications for the 2025 Fast 50 ranking over the summer.”
