In April, 2015, we had the honor of attending the Boston Business Journal’s Annual Pacesetter Awards breakfast. The BBJ notified us a few weeks prior that we had been nominated as one of the top 70 fastest growing private companies in Massachusetts and that was an honor in itself. To hear our name announced as the #1 Fastest growing company, after a long and impressive list of other companies, was not only rewarding but humbling.
Gale Murray, BBJ Publisher, captured the essence of what we have been trying to do when she referred to the Pacesetters as “among the most interesting because they are ambitious privately held firms growing fast and fueling Boston’s growth economy – and succeeding in relative obscurity.”
Growing at a rate of 1,686% is a great accomplishment and we could not have done so without a strong team, great clients, and an industry with endless potential. This recognition emphasizes both the remarkable talent we’ve been fortunate to capture and retain as well as the excellent work we’ve been able to do with clients across multiple industries – all with mobile at the core.
It's amazing to see what we have accomplished and the recognition that we have we received. In 2015, Mobiquity was included in The Forrester Wave™ as one of 9 midsize companies that matter the most for providing mobile enterprise apps and consumer-grade experiences: Mobile Enterprise Apps Services Providers -- Midsize Providers, Q1 2015(link is external). And we were recently included in the list of “Cool Vendors” in the Application Services report by Gartner, Inc.
But it’s not only the industry community that has acknowledged our growth and impact but our clients and partners as well. For our 4th birthday, we reached out to some of these people to get their personal view on Mobiquity and here are some of the comments we received:
"From our humble roots in Bill Seibel's basement to our global footprint in more than a dozen locations, Mobiquity has always been about its people and its culture. Every mobster can be justifiably proud of their role in propelling Mobiquity to its enviable position as THE trusted advisor for organizations embracing mobile transformation." - Mike Heffernan, Mobiquity Co-Founder and Advisory Board Member
“In four short years the Mobiquity team has done what many set out to do but very few have achieved: build the acknowledged leader in a big market.” – Paul Margolis, MD Longworth, Mobiquity BoD
“Working with Mobiquity is both fun and inspiring! How often can you say that about a business partner?? They bring their ‘A team’ to every meeting, resulting in creative collaboration with the client and discipline to bring the idea to life — on schedule and on budget. A great experience!” – Sally Bray, VP Sun Life
