(Market Wire Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge) BRISBANE, CA, October 31 / MARKET WIRE/ --
GlobalEnglish Corporation, the leading
provider of on-demand business English communication learning and support
for the world's top companies, has been named to Deloitte's prestigious
Technology Fast 50 Program for Silicon Valley. This program is a ranking
of the fastest-growing technology, media, telecommunications, and life
sciences companies in the region by Deloitte & Touche USA LLP, one of the
nation's leading professional services organizations. Rankings are based on
the percentage of revenue growth over five years from 2002-2006.
"Our growth over the past five years is a reflection of our demonstrated
results with clients, and the increasing relevance of business English
communication in a rapidly globalizing world," said Deepak Desai, President
and CEO of GlobalEnglish Corporation. "As companies focus on access to new
markets, innovation, speed, productivity, and improved customer service,
the challenges of enabling effective business English communication grow
larger. GlobalEnglish gives organizations a way to strategically and
cost-effectively address the communication issues that are key to success
in these areas."
To qualify for the Technology Fast 50, companies must have had operating
revenues of at least $50,000 in 2002 and $5,000,000 in 2006, be
headquartered in Silicon Valley, and be a company that owns proprietary
technology or proprietary intellectual property that contributes to a
significant portion of the company's operating revenues; or devotes a
significant proportion of revenues to the research and development of
technology. The average increase in revenues among companies who made the
Technology Fast 50 was 1,455%.
"Deloitte's Silicon Valley Technology Fast 50 companies have shown the
strength, vision and tenacity to succeed in today's very competitive
technology environment," said Mark Jensen, partner and national director,
Venture Capital Services, Deloitte & Touche LLP. "We applaud the successes
of GlobalEnglish Corporation and acknowledge it as one of the very few to
accomplish such a fast growth rate over the past five years."
Companies from the 16 regional Technology Fast 50 programs in the United
States and Canada are automatically entered in Deloitte's Technology Fast
500 program, which ranks North America's top 500 fastest growing
technology, media, telecommunications and life sciences companies. For
