New Mexico Flying 40

Is your firm one of New Mexico’s fastest-growing technology companies?

You can find out how you compare by entering the annual New Mexico Technology Flying Forty program, which recognizes and ranks the state’s high-tech growth leaders. The 2012 listing will be compiled from voluntary responses to the Qualification Form.

Eligibility will be determined in three different categories:

Category 1: The top revenue growth companies with revenues between $1 million and $10
million.
Category 2: The top revenue growth companies with revenues of more than $10 million.
(Categories 1 and 2 will be calculated on the percentage of revenue growth
between 2007 and 2011).
Category 3: The top revenue-producing technology companies irrespective of revenue
growth.

To be eligible for inclusion, your firm must meet the criteria listed on the next page and we must receive your Qualification Form by April 6, 2012. Even if your revenues trailed off in 2011, you should consider applying. In any case, we will be honoring 40 companies.

The revenue figures will be used to rank the companies in a list that will be published in a special section of the Albuquerque Journal Business Outlook and top executives of Flying Forty companies will be honored at an awards banquet in June 2012, details to follow.

The 2011 Flying 40—Honoring the fastest growing technology companies in the state of New Mexico
New Mexico’s future is technology; and New Mexico’s future is bright.  Jobs at the Flying 40 increased from 4,314 in 2005 to 6,124 in 2009, a 42 percent increase.  Revenue increased from $741 million in 2005 to over $1.18 billion in 2009, a 60 percent increase.  

Lost in the news about our nation's slow financial recovery is the great news from New Mexico.  RelocateAmerica ranked Albuquerque in the Top 10 Recovery Cities while the Brookings Institute recognized the region as #7 for Increase in Gross Metro Products. Both statistics show the strength and vitality of our technology based economy.

New Mexico’s technology-based economy is thriving.  These companies and their CEOs need to be singled out as examples of the finest New Mexico has to offer.
