Bonfire Announced as One of Deloitte’s Technology Fast 50™ Program Winners for Second Year

  Kitchener-based software company ranks no. 41 in prestigious awards program recognizing revenue growth, entrepreneurial spirit, and bold innovation

Bonfire Interactive Ltd. (“Bonfire”), a business unit of GTY Technology and a leader in strategic sourcing and procurement software for the public sector, today announced it has been presented the Deloitte Technology Fast 50™ program award for its rapid revenue growth, entrepreneurial spirit, and bold innovation. The program recognizes Canada’s 50 fastest-growing technology companies with the highest revenue-growth percentage over the past four years. Bonfire ranks no. 41 with a 425% percent in revenue growth from 2017 to 2020.

The Deloitte Technology Fast 50 program winners consist of public and private companies in the technology sector, which have transformed the industry. Now in its 24th year, the program runs alongside the broader Deloitte North American Technology Fast 500™, with winners automatically eligible for this elite ranking.

“We’re honored to be recognized once again as one of Deloitte’s Technology Fast 50 companies,” said Omar Salaymeh, CEO of Bonfire. “The past two years have been even more focused on rapid innovation as we’ve adapted to best serve our public sector clients during the COVID-19 pandemic. The driving force behind our sustained, rapid revenue growth has undoubtedly been the talent and agility of each individual on the Bonfire team and this award truly belongs to every one of them.”

“As we rise above another year of uncertainty, we are exceptionally proud to announce this year’s Fast 50 winners,” stated Anders McKenzie, partner and national leader for the Technology Fast 50 program at Deloitte Canada. “These innovative trailblazers have demonstrated resilience, true commitment to innovation, adaptability, and business leadership as we cope with an ever-changing new normal. The Fast 50 companies act as catalysts, driving growth of Canadian business.”

To qualify for the Deloitte Technology Fast 50 ranking, companies must have been in business for at least four years, have revenues of at least $5 million, be headquartered in Canada, own proprietary technology, conduct research and development activities in Canada, and invest a minimum of five percent of gross revenues to R&D.
