Ann Arbor SPARK Announces 2016 and 2017 FastTrack Award Applications
Yeo & Yeo is proud to sponsor the SPARK FastTrack Awards which celebrate the economic prosperity of the greater Ann Arbor region. Since 2010, it has been the firm’s privilege to support this initiative and perform the review of the FastTrack applications.
FastTrack is an exciting annual program sponsored by Ann Arbor SPARK, recognizing companies with notable growth over the past few years. FastTrack awards are presented to the applying companies that are identified as having achieved 20 percent annual growth and substantial revenue. This year’s FastTrack Awards for both 2016 and 2017 will be presented at the Ann Arbor SPARK Annual Meeting, which will be held on April 24, 2017, at the Eastern Michigan University Student Center in Ypsilanti, Mich.
FastTrack awardees for 2016 are required to have revenue of at least $100,000 in 2012, with an annual growth of 20 percent for the following three years. Recipients of the 2017 FastTrack Award will have revenue of at least $100,000 in 2013, with an annual growth of 20 percent for the following three years. Companies will complete separate applications for the 2016 and 2017 FastTrack Awards.
Applications are now available for both the 2016 and 2017 Ann Arbor SPARK’s annual FastTrack Awards. The deadline to apply is January 31, 2017.
This is the first year FastTrack Awards will be presented at Ann Arbor SPARK’s Annual Meeting. In prior years, the FastTrack awards were presented at MLive “Deals of the Year” event, which the media organization announced it would no longer host.
