FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

LAURUS TECHNOLOGIES NAMED ONE OF CHICAGO’S FASTEST GROWING COMPANIES FOR 2ND STRAIGHT YEAR.

Ranking in Crain’s Chicago Business follows remarkable growth


ITASCA, Ill. (June 10, 2009) - Laurus Technologies, Inc., a privately-held Itasca, Ill.-based consulting and technology solutions provider, has been named to the Fast Fifty list for 2009 as published recently in Crain's Chicago Business. This is the second straight year that Laurus was named to the Fast Fifty.


The list ranks the Chicago metropolitan area's fastest growing public and private companies based on revenue growth between 2004 and 2008. Laurus Technologies ranked 21st on the list, posting an impressive 492% overall growth since 2004.

“We are honored and delighted to be recognized by Crain's for the second year in a row as one of the fastest growing companies in the Chicago area," said Laurus Founder and Chief Executive Officer John Udelhofen. "Our growth continues to be the result of an excellent team that creates loyal customer relationships centered on helping solve business challenges instead of just delivering IT products. We continue to deliver solutions that our customers can trust."

Laurus Technologies customers see value in the firm's strong commitment to client service, high ratio of engineers and consultants on staff, and ability to drive cost out of business operations. The result is a customer base that relies on the firm for a broad range of technology consulting engagements, including data center assessments and optimization, storage and server deployment business applications consulting for major ERP deployments, master data management, and software solutions for compliance and data loss prevention.

This is just the latest honor for Laurus Technologies in the past three months. Earlier this year, The Business Ledger in Itasca, IL, recognized the company in the Innovation category of the Annual Awards for Business Excellence (AABE). Earlier this month, Laurus Technologies was named to CRN Magazine’s VAR 500 list of North America’s Largest Solution Providers.
Laurus employs nearly 100 people in its offices in Itasca, Chicago, Minneapolis, Milwaukee and Denver.
