The Connecticut Technology Council (CTC) and Marcum LLP today
announce the 2018 Marcum Tech Top 40, the annual recognition of the
fastest growing technology companies in Connecticut. This year’s
group of top-ranked companies will be honored at the new
ConnectiTECH Awards event at the Connecticut Convention Center on
October 3. Revolution Lighting Technologies (Nasdaq: RVLT)
(“Revolution Lighting”) will be honored with 39 other companies and
two accelerator award-winners as the class of 2018.
The Marcum Tech Top 40 has honored over 400
Connecticut-based technology and tech-enabled companies since 2008.
The awards recognize technology leaders in six industry sectors:
Advanced Manufacturing; Energy and Environmental; Life Sciences;
New Media, Internet, and Telecom; IT Services; and Software.
Revolution Lighting has been named a Tech Top 40 in the Advanced
Manufacturing category. Revolution Lighting is a recipient of this
award due to strong revenue growth of at least $3 million in annual
revenue as well growth in each of the preceding four years.
2018’s honorees are a diverse set of businesses
from around the state. Eleven companies are publicly traded, and
eight have over than $1 billion in annual revenue. Two younger
companies, Farmington’s Diameter Health and Stamford’s Link AKC
will be honored at the Tech Top 40 as Accelerators, a
classification reserved for companies that successfully scaled to
$3 million in revenue in fewer than three years.
“We are pleased to be named among the Marcum
Tech Top 40 for the fifth consecutive year, and would like to thank
the Connecticut Technology Council and Marcum LLP for recognizing
our success with this award once again,” said Robert LaPenta,
Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and President, Revolution
Lighting Technologies. “Our Company’s significant growth is driven

solutions. We are a trusted partner to our clients throughout
markets including commercial, industrial, education, healthcare,
maritime, defense, and multi-family housing both nationwide and
