Editor's Note

Growth at scale deserves recognition.

So if your company had FY25 revenue of $20 million or more and a strong FY26, I encourage you to nominate it for our Fast50 Awards.

The revenue tiers give larger partners a way to benchmark growth against businesses of similar scale.

Earning a Fast50 rank can help with brand recognition and visibility with the M&A and investment community, and it recognises team achievement.

We are extending the entry deadline from 28 August to COB 4 September.

Entry details are here and the entry form is here.
