Leader della crescita 2021: the highest growth in revenues for the third consecutive year

26 November 2019

Milan, 26 November 2019 – Podium Advanced Technologies, for the second year, ranks high in the group of the Italian companies that have achieved the highest growth in revenues between 2015 and 2018 selected by Il Sole 24 Ore in “Leader della crescita 2020”, notching the first place in the Automotive sector.  

Il Sole 24 Ore, the most authoritative Italian economic newspaper, has partnered again with Statista to identify the 400 public and private Italian companies that displayed the highest growth in revenues between 2015 and 2018. Participating companies had to meet strict criteria to be included in the ranking, including that of organic growth being the major driver of turnover evolution.

According to the analysis featured in the “Leader della crescita” special report today, the key success driver of companies who are placed high in this ranking is the ability to work in a traditional environment with a genuinely innovative twist and leveraging on leading-edge technologies: Podium Advanced Technologies boasts the first place in the Automotive sector, ranking at number 50 of the 400 selected companies this year, thanks to a remarkable 78% CAGR in revenues over the period.

This latest accomplishment is the evidence of Podium Advanced Technologies continued focus on innovation and technical excellence. The key foundations of revenues growth in 2018 have been the launch of the Automobili Amos Delta Futurista program, a full racing season at the Nürburgring and COTA with Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus, and the inception of the new high capacity batteries and electric powertrains testing activity.
