ISWest Named Among 50 Fastest
Growing Technology Companies in Los Angeles
September 6, 2006 - AGOURA HILLS, Calif. - Marking
its fourth year in a row, award-winning Internet service provider
ISWest has been named one of the top 50 fastest growing technology
companies in Los Angeles in 2006 by Deloitte, one of the nation's
leading professional services firms.
The company has placed four consecutive times on Deloitte's
Fast 50, which ranks the 50 fastest growing technology firms in
Southern California. ISWest placed 18th on Deloitte's Fast
50 list in 2003, 20th in 2004 and 22nd in 2005. ISWest also ranked
the 478th fastest growing technology company in North America on
Deloitte's Fast 500 list in 2003, and 474th in 2004.
Fast 50 rankings are based on the percentage of growth in fiscal
year revenues over five years, from 2001 to 2005. Less than one-third
of companies make the Top 50 four years in a row.
ISWest attributes some growth to acquisitions over the past several
years of six additional ISPs, making ISWest the largest Internet
service provider in Ventura County, and the premier business-to-business
ISP in Southern California. ISWest expects business to grow by
500% over the next 5 years.
The company's success is also based on an accumulation of
talented employees, dependable vendors, strategic partners and
a healthy desire to be the "best of breed" amongst
its peers and competitors, according to Drew Kaplan, ISWest CEO/CFO.
"We play to win," Kaplan said. "Success has
come easy for ISWest because we give real customer service, not
lip service. A lot of companies say they offer the best customer
service in the business, but very few can actually live up to it.
To make sure we were talking the talk and walking the walk, we
hired an outside agency to survey our customers and see how we
were doing. An overwhelming 92% of them said they would recommend
ISWest to a friend or business associate. That's a
number we are very proud of and will continue to strive for."
"Our amazing success is rooted in our insatiable
quest to provide state of the art services backed by one of the
most talented and dedicated customer support teams in the industry," added
Robert V. Johnson, ISWest president.
