Optimus makes the Growth 500 for a Sixth Consecutive Year
Bold attitude and an entrepreneurial spirit. That’s what we keep coming back to as the reasons for our continued growth over the past eight years, and as evidenced by our inclusion in the Growth 500 for 2018. This is the sixth time Optimus SBR has been included on the annual list, and we have no plans of slowing down.
“As Canada’s largest independent consulting firm, Optimus SBR has created our own unique place in the market where we partner with our clients to tackle their toughest challenges and get things done. Our team of highly engaged and entrepreneurial people have made our vision to be a different kind of consulting firm become a reality. It’s a major driver behind our growth” shares Kevin Gauci, Managing Director.
Deborah Aarts, Growth 500 editor and program manager adds, “The companies on the 2018 Growth 500 are truly remarkable. Demonstrating foresight, innovation and smart management, their stories serve as a primer for how to build a successful entrepreneurial business today. As we celebrate 30 years of the Canada’s Fastest-Growing Companies program, it’s encouraging to see that entrepreneurship is healthier than ever in this country.”
Canada’s Fastest-Growing Companies by five-year revenue growth, the Growth 500—formerly known as the PROFIT 500—profiles the country’s most successful entrepreneurial businesses. The Growth 500 is produced by Canadian Business. Winners are profiled in a special Growth 500 print issue of Canadian Business (packaged with the October issue of Maclean’s magazine) and online at Growth500.ca and CanadianBusiness.com.
