Oslo, December 1, 2008 - Edvantage group, an e-learning company and Managed Learning Service provider, has been ranked amongst the winners of the Deloitte Technology Fast 500 EMEA programme for the second consecutive year. The programme – one of the region’s most comprehensive and respected rankings – recognises technology companies that have achieved the fastest rates of annual revenue growth in Europe, Middle-East and Africa (EMEA) during the past five years.
Edvantage group achieved 1237.78% revenue growth in this years ranking and 844% last year. "We are honoured to be acknowledged for our innovation and growth," says Thomas Berglund, CEO, Edvantage group. ”This award confirms the desire clients have for a Managed Learning Service approach, where a single partner puts together all the elements of an e-learning solution and is accountable for delivering quality results.”
Edvantage group will continue to focus on growth and further development of its offerings by leveraging its Software as a Service (SaaS) delivery model, building strategic partnerships and providing exceptional value for clients.
Released with the rankings, the 2008 Technology Fast 500 EMEA CEO Survey –a comprehensive analysis of the business trends and the key concerns and expectations of sector CEOs –shows that finding, hiring and retaining qualified employees is the dominant operational challenge. “We believe highly-skilled employees will be important to organisations’ growth in the future, particularly at times of economic uncertainty and increasing competition,” says Berglund. “Building skills, increasing employee performance and sharing knowledge through e-learning is an important part of an organisation’s talent development strategy.”
