The Philadelphia Business Journal has launched a new initiative to identify the fastest-growing companies in Greater Philadelphia, writes Craig Ey, its Editor-in-Chief.

The companies that made the list have been dubbed the “50 on Fire in Philly.”

The actual rank of each company is being kept a secret until a special event at the SugarHouse Casino on Sept. 22.

“Greater Philadelphia’s economy is increasingly diverse and dynamic,” said Philadelphia Business Journal Publisher Sandy Smith. “We consider it a crucial part of our mission to identify and recognize the companies driving our region’s growth.”

The Journal looked at revenue growth over a three-year period from 2013 to 2015 to determine which companies made the cut.

Incredibly, Montgomery County companies account for almost half (23) of the “50 on Fire in Philly”:

• Alura Business Solutions (Plymouth Meeting)
• BartonPartners Architects Planners Inc. (Norristown)
• Benjamin Foods (Hatboro)
• BlackTree Healthcare Consulting (Conshohocken)
