Tariffville, CT (August 25, 2017) - The Connecticut Technology Council (CTC) and Marcum LLP announced Metrum Research Group has made the Marcum Tech Top 40 (TT40) list of fastest growing technology companies in Connecticut. Metrum Research Group will be honored alongside 39 other TT40 companies at an awards ceremony on September 19th at the Oakdale Theatre in Wallingford. This marks the seventh time Metrum Research Group has been honored to be a Marcum Tech Top 40 recipient.

The Marcum Tech Top 40, now celebrating its tenth anniversary, has honored over 360 Connecticut technology companies since 2008. The awards recognize technology leaders in six industry sectors, including Advanced Manufacturing, Energy/Environmental, Life Sciences, New Media/Internet/Telecom, IT Services, and Software. Companies are both privately and publicly held and have at least $3 million in annual revenue and a demonstrated record of revenue growth in each of the preceding four years. Metrum Research Group has been named a Tech Top 40 in the Life Sciences category. Metrum Research Group is a recipient of this award due to strong revenue growth of at least $3 million in annual revenue as well as growth in each of the preceding four years.

“Marcum is proud to extend enthusiastic congratulations to all of this year’s fastest growing technology companies,” said Michael K. Brooder, CPA, managing partner of Marcum’s Hartford, Connecticut, office. “Marcum is proud to help celebrate the tech sector, one of the examples of growth and innovation within Connecticut’s business ecosystem. The Marcum Tech Top 40 is our long-standing way of recognizing this and celebrating the achievements of some of the most disruptive and forwarding thinking companies in the state. It is an honor to partner with the Connecticut Technology Council on this outstanding event for the tenth year running.”

Bruce Carlson, CTC’s President and CEO added, “Connecticut is proud of its unique history of innovation and entrepreneurship. Growth in Connecticut must and does come, at least in part, from the technology sector, and these Marcum Tech Top 40 companies are exemplary of the achievements of the growing tech sector in the state. We look forward to celebrating tech growth achievements for another decade and beyond.”

Marc R. Gastongauy, Ph.D., CEO of Metrum Research Group, commented “The Marcum Tech Top 40 award is a particularly meaningful honor for Metrum Research Group, because it recognizes great technology companies from our home state of CT. Like other tech companies in the state, our success is driven by the incredible individuals who work in our company, many of whom were educated or developed skills and expertise in CT.”

The September 19th awards program will include an exhibition featuring the Marcum Tech Top 40 companies. One company from each of the six industry verticals will be named overall winner for demonstrating the greatest percentage growth in revenue across all the technology verticals.
