'Innovating with confidence': BC firms shine bright on Deloitte's Fast 50 list. Deloitte Canada today revealed the winners of its 2026 Technology Fast 50 program. Now in its 29th year, the Technology Fast program recognizes achievements made by Canada's fastest-growing technology companies, celebrating entrepreneurial spirit and highlighting commitment to innovation across three distinct categories: Technology Fast 50, Enterprise - Industry Leaders, and Companies-to-Watch. This year's Technology Fast 50 cohort achieved an average growth rate of 3,079%, a strong showing by historical standards. Toronto's Finni Health tops this year's Technology Fast 50 category, posting four-year revenue growth of 46,574%. In the Enterprise - Industry Leaders category, Vancouver's UniUni secured first place with four-year revenue growth of 2,143%. Meanwhile, Ottawa's Turbopuffer topped the Companies-to-Watch category, achieving three-year revenue growth of 65,443%. "These companies have excelled through their relentless focus on the fundamentals of growth: winning customers, attracting investment, building strong teams, and pursuing new opportunities," commented Amanda Perran, Partner and national co-leader for the Technology Fast 50 program at Deloitte Canada. "The next stage of their journey will be defined by how effectively they combine that ambition with the capital, talent, and AI-enabled capabilities needed to create sustainable, long-term value," she stated. Making up nearly 30% of the Fast 50 list, top performers from British Columbia include SimplyAsk (5th), Total Life (6th), and Clarity (10th). Minga (15th), TravelAI (16th), and Hypercharge (17th) also made the Fast 50 list, as did Yocale Network (18th), Quandri (20th), and veritree (27th).

For some, like Oxygen8 and Hydreight, it is their third or fourth time on the list. Others, such as SimplyAsk and Quandri, are returning for their second time.

"The strongest signal from the 2026 Technology Fast 50 class is confidence," believes Brendan Cooper, partner and national co-leader for the Technology Fast 50 program at Deloitte Canada. "These Canadian companies have been shaped by disruption and proven through crunch periods," Cooper said. "That resilience is showing in how they lead today." "They are investing, hiring, and innovating through uncertainty with confidence," he stated.
