OptConnect, a longtime leader in fully managed wireless services, today announced its inclusion in the 2023 Utah 100, MountainWest Capital Network’s (MWCN) annual list of the fastest-growing companies in Utah. After being ranked number 76 last year, OptConnect jumped to number 38 during today’s 29th annual Utah 100 Awards held at the Grand America Hotel in Salt Lake City.
This is OptConnect’s ninth year on the list.
“This recognition is a testament to the hard work, innovation, and dedication of our exceptional team,” said Chris Baird, CEO of OptConnect. “Their relentless commitment to delivering cutting-edge connectivity solutions has allowed us to reach new heights in the tech industry. We’re incredibly proud of what we’ve accomplished, and we couldn’t have done it without each and every person who supports and believes in OptConnect. We are more motivated than ever to continue pushing boundaries, providing top-notch service, and delivering the latest in IoT connectivity. This is just the beginning, and we have some exciting developments in store.”
MWCN’s exclusive awards program brings together investors, entrepreneurs, and professional service providers who are recognized as Utah’s 100 fastest growing and most economically impactful businesses in the state. In addition to its Utah 100 list, MWCN recognizes the Top 15 Revenue Growth companies and the Emerging Elite—the state’s top startups just breaking into the scene.
“We congratulate all of this year’s Utah 100 companies for building outstanding businesses and making strong contributions to Utah’s economy,” said Jason Roberts, Chairman of the MWCN Utah 100 committee. “These companies further advance Utah’s standing as an excellent place to do business.”
This year’s Utah 100 recipients were chosen based on each company’s percentage of revenue increase between 2018 and 2022.
