Last month, Techcouver reported on B.C. companies once again dominating Deloitte Canada’s annual Technology Fast 50 list.
Now in its 28th year, the program recognizes Canada’s fastest-growing technology firms based on three-year revenue growth, celebrating entrepreneurship and innovation across the country.
Vancouver-based logistics upstart UniUni led the province’s showing with a remarkable 6,829% three-year revenue growth rate.
Others on the 2025 list included Veritree (#7, 6,565%), Apera AI (#10, 5,264%), Oxygen8 (#20, 1,566%), Corinex (#23, 1,303%), Hydreight (#25, 1,238%), CyberQP (#27, 1,114%), Ideon (#33, 938%), Saltworks (#35, 811%), MineSense (#48, 527%), and OWL.CO (#50, 499%).
One standout was Vancouver’s SimplyAsk.ai, ranked as a Company-to-Watch with a growth rate over 5,000%.
SimplyAsk.ai is the Canadian company behind Symphona, a no-code artificial intelligence automation platform.
“Being selected by Deloitte as a Company-to-Watch is a tremendous honour and a direct reflection of our team’s relentless pursuit of innovation and excellence,” commented chief executive officer Shuli Gortler.
Founded in 2021, SimplyAsk has grown to a team of roughly 80 employees today, who help
enterprises modernize operations, improve service quality, and reduce costs through AI agents (Symphona Converse), workflow automation (Symphona Flow), and task management (Symphona Serve) tools.
The acknowledgment from Deloitte “validates our mission to empower organizations and enhance their operational efficiency and accuracy with Symphona’s advanced conversational AI Agents, AI‑powered workflow automation, intelligent ticketing and task management, and open integrations,” according to Gortler.
“With clients across multiple industries like TELUS, The City of Vancouver, Sigfusson Northern, and Novus, SimplyAsk.ai is committed to enabling midmarket and enterprise organizations to run their operations more intelligently and efficiently,” the CEO stated.
Winners under the Companies-to-Watch category are “paving the way for a new era of innovation in Canada’s technology industry,” suggests Amanda Perran, a National Technology Fast 50 program co-leader at Deloitte Canada.
“Their creativity, agility, and drive set them apart as rising stars,” she said, “and we are eager to see how their fresh perspectives and bold ambitions will shape the future of our tech ecosystem.”
Fellow co-leader Brendan Cooper agrees, noting how “passion and forward-thinking ideas are fuelling exciting momentum” as emerging companies like SimplyAsk “are already challenging norms and pushing boundaries.”
