Virginia Chamber Unveils 17th Annual List of Virginia’s Fastest Growing Companies – the Fantastic 50
Richmond, VA—The Virginia Chamber announced the names of fifty of the fastest growing Virginia companies at the seventeenth annual Virginia’s FANTASTIC 50 Awards Banquet on April 26 at the Westfields Marriott in Chantilly. Nearly 400 attendees at the ceremony saluted the winners for their entrepreneurial success and contribution to Virginia’s economy.
"Small businesses are the backbone of the Virginia economy, creating jobs and opportunity across the Commonwealth, said Virginia Chamber president and CEO Barry DuVal. We are proud to recognize the achievements of our entrepreneurs at the Fantastic 50 banquet."
A highlight of the awards banquet was the announcement of the five Virginia Vanguard Winners—one for the highest overall growth, and the other four for highest growth in the categories of Manufacturing, Retail/Wholesale, Service, and Technology. The 2012 Virginia Vanguard Winners are:
Highest Overall Growth: Valkyrie Enterprises LLC, a Virginia Beach-based provider of engineering and technical services;
Manufacturing: Heatex America LLC in Natural Bridge Station, which manufactures and sells heat exchangers;
Retail/Wholesale: SteelMaster Buildings in Virginia Beach, which has sold more than 40,000 steel and metal prefabricated buildings worldwide;
Service: Integrity Management Consulting in McLean, which helps federal agencies with acquisition and program management support services
Technology: Agilex Technologies, Inc., a Chantilly-based company that specializes in information technology and systems consulting.
A list of the 50 award winners is below.
The evening’s keynote speaker, Lieutenant Governor Bill Bolling, gave an inspirational address recognizing the pivotal role of small businesses and entrepreneurs in growing Virginia’s economy.
"I am delighted to participate in this wonderful event, which recognizes many of the fastest growing companies in Virginia. Each of these companies has contributed significantly to the tremendous economic growth we have seen in Virginia over the past two years. Small businesses account for a very large percentage of the 768 economic development deals we have closed during the first 27 months of our administration, and they are responsible for most of the 119,800 net new jobs that we have created. It is important that we recognize these businesses for the contribution they have made to Virginia’s economy, and I applaud the Virginia Chamber of Commerce for doing so."
