PrivateFly jets into The Sunday Times Tech Track 100

We’ve added another chapter to our exciting growth story this week, with PrivateFly named one of the UK’s fastest-growing technology companies in the annual Sunday Times Hiscox Tech Track 100.

The league table, published on 11th September, is an annual rundown of UK-based tech companies, across all industries, who have added the most sales over a three year period.

We’re very proud to be featured in the top half, at number 46, with a 78% growth rate over three years.

And proud too, to be listed alongside some other truly innovative companies, who have been busy disrupting their sectors, just as we have ours.

The Tech Track includes tech companies across a diverse range of sectors: From cloud services; to market research; to gaming; mobile payments; and solar systems. It’s an inspiring summary of some of the exciting innovation that’s taking place in UK tech today.

Double league table success for PrivateFly

This seals a double Sunday Times league table success for us this year. In May, we were named the UK’s 4th fastest growing company for overseas growth in the Export Track 100 – recognising the growing popularity of PrivateFly in the US, across Europe and elsewhere.

Both of these rankings are a welcome validation of our team’s efforts over the past few years, to achieve this strong and consistent growth rate.

Since 2008, PrivateFly has been a trailblazer for innovation in private jet charter and our ongoing sales success demonstrates our assertion that technology in our industry is the way ahead (which was doubted by many when we started out).

We were the first platform to offer online private jet charter; and the first to launch a private charter smartphone app in 2010. And while others have since joined the tech race in our sector, it’s clear that PrivateFly’s customer-focussed combination, of an online technology platform with an expert industry team, is a solid, efficient and scalable business model for success.

A growth story set to continue…

Since the analysis for the Tech Track 100 was completed, we have added another year of growth at 50%, so this in an upward climb that is most definitely continuing.

Our team is growing – with new roles in our sales, technology and US-based teams. And, in traditional fancy dress on your first day here, new starters Steve and Veronica (aka Hot Dog and Banana Man) were happy to help us celebrate our Tech Track success today.

While we like to have fun, we are also extremely serious and committed to having a winning combination of the very best technology and team in the business.

With their help, we’re looking forward to delivering on our ambitious growth plan over the coming weeks, months and years. Both to further enhance our proposition for existing customers and our supply chain, and to bring our winning recipe of rapid and cost-effective jet charter, with excellent service, to a greater number of global customers.
