BOSTON– Emulate, Inc., a leading provider of next-generation in vitro models, announced today that it ranked No. 208 on the Deloitte Technology Fast 500™, an annual list of the 500 fastest-growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences, fintech, and energy tech companies in North America, now in its 27th year.
Emulate’s Chief Executive Officer, Jim Corbett, attributes the company’s revenue growth to the strength of talent throughout the Emulate team, the expansion of Emulate’s Organ-on-a-Chip application offerings, and simultaneous policy commitments that advocate for the use of animal model alternatives in drug development. “Despite the challenges of an unprecedented year, Emulate’s success can be attributed to a variety of factors that will continue to drive momentum through 2022 and beyond,” he said. “We have scaled our team to include scientific expertise that aligns with our application roadmap and commercial leaders from across the life sciences industry. We have also deepened our portfolio of human-relevant Organ-on-a-Chip models with the introduction of the Brain-Chip and the Colon Intestine-Chip, and we have reinforced our commitment to reduce animal testing by joining the North American 3Rs collaborative as well as supporting the FDA Modernization Act and the Humane Research Act.”
“Each year the Technology Fast 500 shines a light on leading innovators in technology, and this year is no exception,” said Paul Silverglate, vice chair, Deloitte LLP and U.S. technology sector leader. “In the face of innumerable challenges resulting from the pandemic, the best and brightest were able to pivot, reinvent, transform and grow. We celebrate the winning organizations and especially the talented employees driving their success.”
“The pandemic has underscored the urgent need for tech solutions in a variety of areas across health care, fintech, energy tech, and entertainment, to name a few, so reliance on innovators like the winners of the Technology Fast 500 is more important than ever,” said Christie Simons, partner, Deloitte & Touche LLP and industry leader for technology, media, and telecommunications within Deloitte’s audit & assurance practice. “These companies are at the cutting edge, transforming the way we do business, but—most importantly—they also recognize the strategic importance of ongoing innovation, especially in the ever-changing world of technology.”
