Connect&GO Named One of the Fastest-Growing Companies in North America by the Deloitte Fast 500
Montreal, Quebec, November 14, 2024 — Connect&GO, a leading provider of integrated attractions management solutions for theme parks, zoos, aquariums, and museums, proudly announces its inclusion in the prestigious 2024 Deloitte Technology Fast 500™ ranking of the fastest-growing technology companies in North America. This recognition comes on the heels of Connect&GO's impressive placement as #106 on the Globe and Mail’s list of Canada’s Top Growing Companies for 2024.
Achieving recognition on both these influential lists is a testament to Connect&GO's remarkable revenue growth (+376% over the last 3 years) and innovative approach to modernizing the attractions industry. By simplifying operations, enhancing guest experiences, and streamlining the management of complex venues, Connect&GO is setting a new standard for efficiency and engagement in the sector.
Redefining an Industry in Transition
As the attractions industry faces growing pressure to modernize, Connect&GO stands at the forefront of transformation, challenging the dominance of legacy systems. "We are on a mission to replace the outdated systems that have held this industry back for decades," said Anthony Palermo, co-founder of Connect&GO. "Our technology is built to empower attractions of all sizes to operate more efficiently and deliver unforgettable experiences to their guests. Complex operations should have a partner that gives them the power to take quick decisions, and that’s what we’re offering to our clients." And with the support of their investors, 25 million dollars injected in the last few years proves that they are heading in the right direction.
Looking to the Future: Expansion, Acquisitions, and Growth
With this recognition as a catalyst, Connect&GO is accelerating its ambitious growth strategy. The company is currently on the verge of closing a significant funding round, which will fuel its plans to expand into new markets, pursue strategic acquisitions, and further solidify its position as an industry leader.
“Our goal for the coming years is clear: to become the dominant player in attractions management,” added Dominic Gagnon. “We're leveraging our momentum to scale rapidly, explore new territories, and introduce innovative solutions that will transform the way attractions are managed worldwide.”
