15 How was the Tech Tour Growth 50 list generated? The Tech Tour identified a long list of 366 companies, backed by at least one independent investor, that potentially met certain valuation and growth criteria (see box on right) These were screened by Dow Jones VentureSource and Go4Venture. Companies that definitely did not meet the criteria were removed. A list of 144 companies was generated. These companies and/or their investors were contacted to verify the criteria Companies were also asked to voluntarily supply additional supporting information on a confidential basis. The results gave a list of 93 companies. Companies were allocated a grade depending on the criteria they met and the additional information supplied. Growth information was prioritised in the grading.. A selection committee then voted for their individual Top 50 The companies were then ranked by votes and grade What were the criteria for inclusion in the initial list? Companies were estimated to have achieved three of the four criteria below: 50% sales growth (CAGR from Dec 31sr 2011 to Dec 31 st 2014) $100 million valuation Raised more than $20 million Annual revenue greater than $10 million. The top 50 companies compose the Tech Tour Growth 50. As no method is perfect we have not ranked the Tech Tour Growth 50
