SAINT-BRUNO-DE-MONTARVILLE, SEPTEMBER 13 2018 – Creos, North America’s first interactive installation broker, ranked an impressive 20th among leading Canadian startups in the 2018 Startup 50 ranking compiled by Canadian Business and Maclean’s magazines. The ranking underscores the expertise of young companies by evaluating revenue growth over a period of two years and is intended as a companion to the prestigious Growth 500 listing.

“We are delighted to see Creos become the first company in the cultural sector to merit inclusion in this celebrated compilation of Canada’s fastest growing companies. The honour owes to the rigour and hard work of a talented team of passionate individuals who have mastered the art of bringing art to the world, and represents an accomplishment which would not have been possible without the support and trust of all clients, creators and owners of interactive installations,” proffers Benoît Lemieux, General Manager at Creos.

About Startup 50

As the Growth 500 ranking is based on revenue growth over five years, companies need to have been in operation for at least five years to be eligible. However, we believe that young, fast growing companies are also deserving of recognition. We therefore celebrate these younger companies with the 2018 Startup 50 ranking of the fastest growing new companies in Canada. A companion to the broader Growth 500, this special ranking profiles public and private companies based on revenue growth over a period of two years. Leaders in growth ranked on each of the Growth 500 and Startup 50 will be published in special editions of Maclean’s and L’actualité, and posted online at CanadianBusiness.com.
