RocketBuilders: Announcing the 2021 Ready to Rocket List - Digital Health

Rocket Builders shares its 2021 Ready to Rocket List that celebrates BC’s Leading Growth Tech companies.

The Ready to Rocket List by Rocket Builders, is an annual list celebrating BC’s Leading Growth Tech companies. These companies are identified as Emerging Rockets (companies poised for growth) or Ready-to-Rocket (companies already scaling revenue) in several categories: Agri-food, ICT, CleanTech, Digital Health, and Life Sciences.

“Ready to Rocket” companies, on average, have exceeded a 50% annual growth revenue growth rate and have significantly increased their employee headcount each year. “Ready to Rocket” companies are more likely to raise investment capital and each year many of the profiled “Ready to Rocket” companies are acquired.

However, of these slowed businesses:

  • 30% saw revenue declines
  • 58% saw positive revenue growth
  • 24% of these companies still saw over 100% growth
