Charlotte companies’ stellar growth on display at Fast 50 event

Excerpt from original post by   –  Senior Staff Writer, Charlotte Business Journal

Each year,  CBJ honors the fastest-growing companies in the Charlotte region.  This year, the event was held at Hilton Charlotte City Center on December 7, 2017. Lakeside Project Solutions was proudly honored with #25 ranking out of the 50 companies awarded. This is the fifth consecutive year that Lakeside Project Solutions has been ranked in the Charlotte Business Journal’s Fast 50.

CBJ President and Publisher Kevin Pitts confirmed the space-travel theme of the evening by walking onstage in a spacesuit and helmet. Music from “Close Encounters,” “The Jetsons” and “Star Wars” and songs such as “Rocket Man” and “Man on the Moon” contributed to the other-worldly feel of the event.

As a whole, the Fast 50 companies crushed both revenue and employment numbers for the year. Combined, they employ 4,000 and have annual revenues of $500 million, Pitts says.

A special publication highlighting the Fast 50 and the full ranking will appear in the Dec. 15 subscriber edition.
