Biktrix’s CEO Roshan Thomas credits the unique innovations made by their in-house design team and society’s increased interest in alternative transportation options with the company's 765 percent revenue growth. Thomas said, “Biktrix has always been a leader in bringing premium electric bicycle technologies to market, and our inclusion in this award category reflects our steady success. Responding to the public desire for reliable and efficient transportation options, Biktrix is attentive to the needs of our customers and is proud to provide an elite-level buying experience from start to finish, all while pushing the boundaries of eBike innovations.”
“These outstanding companies are amongst the elite of Canada’s clean technology sector, developing and bringing to market innovations that create a more resilient and sustainable future for the environment,” stated Anders McKenzie, partner and national leader for the Technology Fast 50 program at Deloitte Canada. “With ever-increasing business opportunities to reduce our carbon footprint, make energy efficiency gains, and accelerate the deployment of renewable energy sources, these winners distinguish themselves in a highly promising and dynamic space. They represent a cohort of innovators who are contributing to the environment and helping to create a sustainable business and technology landscape in Canada.”
Eligibility in the Clean Technology category requires applicants to meet the same criteria as for Technology Fast 50 nominees except they must have a minimum revenue of $50,000 in 2018 and $5 million in 2021. The winning companies are ranked by their revenue-growth percentage over that period.
The majority of the companies’ revenues must come from products or services that have a positive environmental impact in the following areas: carbon emissions reduction potential, resource circulation (reduce, reuse, and recycle), or environmental preservation and safety.
This year marks 25 years since the establishment of Deloitte’s Technology Fast 50 award program in Canada.
