Diply Ranked #1 in the Deloitte Technology Fast 50™ Program

Diply, a leading social entertainment media publisher, was recognized for rapid revenue growth, bold innovation, and its entrepreneurial spirit with a Deloitte (News - Alert) Technology Fast 50 award. The Fast 50 program honors 50 Canadian technology companies with the highest revenue-growth percentage throughout the past four years.

Diply ranked #1 with 92,881% revenue growth from 2013 to 2016.

"Diply was launched with the sole focus of publishing fun social-first content that people want to consume and share. Our dedicated audience - now 71 million strong, and growing - have helped us achieve success that we've never imaged we'd hit since writing our first business plan in 2013," said Taylor Ablitt, Diply Co-Founder and CEO. "The Deloitte Technology Fast 50 award is prestigious recognition for the hard work that every Diply employee has devoted since day one. The award recipents are impressive; we're humbled to be part of such an esteemed group."

The Deloitte Technology Fast 50 program winners are made up of public and private companies in the technology sector that share common traits and strengths and have transformed the industry. Celebrating its 20^th anniversary this year, the program augments the broader Deloitte North American Technology (News - Alert) Fast 500™ initiative with winners automatically eligible for this elite ranking.

"New technologies have disrupted various industries in ways that were unimaginable a few years ago," said Erica Pretorius, Partner and National Leader for the Technology Fast 50™ program at Deloitte Canada. "Fast 50 winners have led the way and I can't wait to see where they take us next."

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 in R&D.
