The Bay Area is heartily represented in Deloitte's annual list of fastest growing technology companies in North America.
Nearly one-fifth of the companies on the firm's "Technology Fast 500" are based here — the top region in this year's rankings, followed by the Tri-State area (New York, New Jersey and Connecticut) at 12% of the list, New England at 6%, and Washington State, Texas and the Washington, D.C. area clocking in at 5% each.
San Francisco-based Vir Biotechnology took the No. 1 spot. The biotech company develops immunology-based treatments for infectious diseases. Founded in 2016, Vir went public in late 2019. It also developed a single-dose monoclonal antibody treatment for covid-19 with GSK, and the treatment was approved for emergency use in 2021, though officials around the world have since revoked authorization and recommendations for its use due to its lack of effectiveness against emerging variants.
Jack Dorsey's Block Inc. (formerly known as Square) also made the list at #324. Tiger Global Management recently increased its holdings of the company's stock, according to Reuters.
Other companies that made it onto the list include Jane Technologies (#28), Samsara (#63), Discord (#77), Zoom (#97), Twilio (#389), Roku (#456), Pinterest (#498) and Cloudflare (#500).
Industries represented on the list include biotech, financial services, communications, hardware, gaming, energy and analytics. And of course, lots of software.
