VANCOUVER, BC—(Marketwired – November 20, 2015) – QuickMobile, the global leader in enterprise mobile meeting and event apps, today announced it earned a ranking for the third consecutive year on Deloitte's Technology Fast 500â„¢, a list of the 500 fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences, and energy tech companies in North America. QuickMobile ranked #182, growing by more than 100 percent year over year between 2011 and 2014.
The total addressable worldwide market for mobile apps for meetings and events is estimated at more than $8 billion, based on figures provided by PwC and Frost & Sullivan. Core markets in North America and Europe enjoy higher than average penetration rates, but are far from saturated. In fact, the growing importance of enterprise–wide mobility strategies continues to stimulate demand. Over the past seven years, QuickMobile has transformed the event and meeting experience with its scalable app platform and rich attendee data.
David Smith, QuickMobile's chief executive officer, credits the company's consistently strong year–over–year growth to its opportunistic head start and its continued innovation. He said, “Our team has worked hard to keep pace with demand, develop new technologies and prepare our company for continued growth. We have had tremendous traction for our multi–event technology with Fortune 100 companies, as well as global brands in all sectors, especially high tech, financial, pharmaceuticals, and manufacturing. We are continuously developing and integrating new technologies and diversifying our product offering, further entrenching QuickMobile as the recognized leader in mobile apps for meetings and events. When we look back at everything that we accomplished, it's clear that we are primed to expand our market position.”
QuickMobile's app platform and content management system makes it easy to create and manage apps for all types of meetings and events, from marquee trade shows and user conferences to shareholder meetings, sales kickoffs and beyond. The company develops mobile event apps for enterprise clients, associations, trade shows and conferences, providing a secure, scalable, and flexible mobile platform that delivers an immersive experience for attendees and deep analytics that help drive the business forward.
