Overview

Now in its 16th year, the Marcum Tech Top 40 is the premier awards program recognizing Connecticut’s fastest growing technology companies. The awards recognize technology leaders in six industry sectors that reflect the state’s technology landscape:

  • Advanced Manufacturing
  • Energy, Environment, or Green Technology

  • Life Sciences
  • New Media, Internet, or Telecommunications

Tech Top 40 companies are both privately and publicly held, must have $3 million in annual revenue, and demonstrate a record of revenue growth in the past four years.
