ASX continues to be a proud sponsor of the Deloitte Technology Fast 50. This is the ninth consecutive year we have been associated with the event. We are increasingly impressed by the high calibre of companies that make the winners’ list each year.

The companies appearing on this year’s Tech Fast 50 list have shown themselves to be outstanding leaders in their fields. My congratulations to all those nominated and a special call out to the 2022 winner – Montu. 

It is pleasing to again see such a wide representation of ASX-listed technology companies in this year’s awards. The technology sector continues to be the second largest sector on the exchange by number of listed companies and includes over 20 firms worth more than a billion dollars.

Whilst 2022 is proving to be a testing time in both the public and private markets, the support and development of the Australian technology sector remains a key long term focus for ASX as Australian companies continue to drive new technologies and innovation. 

ASX is consistently ranked among the world’s leading exchanges for both number of IPOs and capital raised, and has emerged as a global home for mid-cap technology listings. In recent years, we’ve attracted a steady flow of listings not only from our home market, but also from New Zealand, the United States, the UK, Israel, Singapore, Canada and Ireland. 

The depth of the superannuation pool and access to growth capital from domestic and global institutional investors through earlier index inclusion sets ASX apart from other international exchanges. We are proud to sit at the heart of Australia’s and New Zealand’s financial market, helping companies raise capital to grow and achieve their goals, and enabling investors to build long-term wealth.  We can’t do it without the quality and ingenuity of the companies on show among the Tech Fast 50.

We look forward to welcoming many more technology businesses to ASX and wish all the Deloitte Technology Fast 50 finalists a bright future.
