BA Insight Makes Deloitte Fast 500 List
December 14, 2013
It looks like BA Insight is growing and growing. Yahoo Finance shares, “BA Insight Ranked Number 393 Fastest Growing Company in North America on Deloitte’s 2013 Technology Fast 500 (TM).” The list ranks the 500 fastest-growing: tech, media, telecom, life sciences, and clean tech companies on this continent. The evaluation is based on percentage fiscal year revenue growth from 2008 to 2012. (See the article for conditions contenders must meet.)
We learn:
“BA Insight’s Chief Executive Officer, Massood Zarrabian credits the emergence of Big Data and the market demand for search-driven applications for the company’s revenue growth. He said, ‘We are honored to be ranked among the fastest growing technology companies in North America. BA Insight has been focused on developing the BAI Knowledge Integration Platform that enables organization to implement powerful search-driven applications rapidly, at a fraction of the cost, time, and risk of traditional alternatives. Additionally, we have partnered with visionary organizations to transform their enterprise search engines into knowledge engines giving them full access to organizational knowledge assets.'”
The press release notes that BA Insight has grown 193 percent over five years. Interesting—while other firms are struggling, BA Insight has almost doubled. But from what to what? The write-up does not say.
BA Insight has set out to redefine enterprise search to make it more comprehensive and easier to use. Founded in 2004, the company is headquartered in Boston and keeps its technology center in New York City. Some readers may be interested to know that the company is currently hiring for the Boston office.
