Posted on: 05/06/2008

Fusepoint Managed Services, a key provider of outsourced managed IT and infrastructure services to mid-market organisations in Canada, has been recognised in the 20th annual PROFIT 100 ranking of Canada's Fastest-Growing Companies by PROFIT Magazine as number 46.

Fusepoint's revenue has grown 1,400% over the past five years, as over 400 new customers including The Canadian Football League, Bell Canada, Fujitsu, Maple Leaf Foods, Colliers International, CIBC, Rogers Communications, and the Royal Canadian Mint have all chosen Fusepoint's managed and colocation services. Ranking Canada's Fastest-Growing Companies by five-year revenue growth, the PROFIT 100 profiles the country's most successful growth companies.

Published in the June issue of PROFIT and online at www.PROFIT100.com, the PROFIT 100 is Canada's largest annual celebration of entrepreneurial achievement.

Having recently announced the expansion of its Vancouver data centre, Fusepoint is also planning additional facilities development in Toronto to meet increased demand.

"Issues surrounding the compliance and regulation of sensitive and private data have ignited a firestorm in the managed services market as companies scramble to keep pace with a growing list of technical requirements," said George Kerns, President and CEO of Fusepoint. "We have been able to leverage our continued investments in areas of compliance certifications such as CICA 5970, SAS 70 Type II, and Tier 1 PCI to offer a reflection of our technical command of managed services."
