The company’s revenue growth is driven by its technical ingenuity, agility and innovation as a small business finance solutions provider
Lehi, Utah, Nov. 18, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Lendio, the nation’s leading marketplace for small business loans, today announced it ranked #396 on Deloitte’s 2020 Technology Fast 500™, a ranking of the 500 fastest-growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences and energy tech companies in North America.
Focused on helping small business owners find and manage the working capital they need to grow, Lendio is a mission-driven, values-based small business solutions provider. Brock Blake, CEO and co-founder of Lendio, credits the company’s growth to its people and their commitment to helping small business owners succeed.
In an unprecedented year that saw one out of five small businesses shut their doors, demand for government relief funding reached unprecedented levels. Lendio’s application and loan matching technology helped to facilitate Paycheck Protection Program loan approvals for more than 115,000 business owners. Additionally, Lendio provided the technology for its financial institution partners to launch a digital PPP loan application. These services proved to be invaluable to small business owners as well as financial institutions in connecting the two parties together to facilitate loans faster and more effectively.
“Lendio’s growth and its impact on the small business community are both the result of a true team effort,” said Blake. “From our innovative product and development teams to our dedicated loan advisors to our customer-focused marketing team, everyone at Lendio is driven by a desire to help small business owners achieve their American dream.”
“For more than 25 years, we’ve been honoring companies that define the cutting edge and this year’s Technology Fast 500 list is proof positive that technology — from software and digital media platforms, to biotech — truly does permeate so many facets of our lives,” said Paul Silverglate, vice chairman, Deloitte LLP and U.S. technology sector leader. “We congratulate this year’s winners, especially during a time when innovation is needed more than ever to address the monumental challenges posed by the pandemic.”
“Each year the Technology Fast 500 listing validates how important technology innovation is to our daily lives,” said Mohana Dissanayake, partner, Deloitte & Touche LLP, and industry leader for technology, media and telecommunications, within Deloitte’s audit and assurance practice. “We extend sincere congratulations to these well-deserved winners — who all embody a spirit of curiosity, and a never-ending commitment to making technology advancements possible.”
Lendio previously ranked No. 378 on the Technology Fast 500™ list in 2019.
