NEW YORK, NY, Nov. 19, 2025 — Deloitte today released its “North America Technology Fast 500™, an annual ranking of the fastest-growing North American companies in the technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences, fintech, and energy tech sectors, now in its 31st year.
Technology Fast 500 awardees are selected based on percentage fiscal year revenue growth from 2021 to 2024. Overall, this year’s Technology Fast 500 companies achieved revenue growth ranging from 122% to 29,738% over the three-year time frame, with an average growth rate of 1,079%.
“This year’s rankings highlight both enduring leadership and breakthrough growth,” said Wolfe Tone, US Deloitte Private & Emerging Client Portfolio Leader. “More than half of the winners are prior honorees, yet the majority of the top ten are first-time entrants—demonstrating the staying power of established leaders alongside the accelerating growth of new innovators across key sectors. As in previous years, private companies continue to dominate, underscoring the agility that private enterprises bring to competitive markets, enabling the exceptional triple and quadruple digit growth reflected in these rankings.”
Impiricus claimed the top spot with a growth rate of 29,738% from 2021 to 2024. With its AI-powered Healthcare Professional (HCP) Engagement Engine, Impiricus was created to ethically connect physicians to pharmaceutical resources and accelerate patient access to life-saving care.
“Impiricus’s growth is the outcome of an amazing team relentlessly focused on helping life science companies serve physicians and patients across the United States,” said Dr. Osama Hashmi, dermatologist, CEO and co-founder of Impiricus. “We’re proud to lead with purpose, building AI that fosters trust, not noise. Our mission is to set the standard for ethical, AI-powered physician connections to pharma resources, accelerating and expanding patient access to needed treatments. As we continue to innovate quickly, we remain committed to building ethical bridges across this vital ecosystem.”
