Six of the companies are based in Sofia. The exception is the Donau Star shipping and freight-forwarding company. This is the third edition of FT1000. In the previous two years Bulgaria was represented by only one organisation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Accedia is the leader among the Bulgarian companies. It ranks on 448th place, with a growth progress of 388%. Right after Accedia is another technological leader in Bulgaria that was ranked in the previous two editions of the index as well &#8211; Bulpros Consulting. Next are Donau Star (476), Next Consult (642), the producer of groceries and RooBar &#8211; Smart Organic (908), the tech company Scale Focus (937), and the studio equipment company Dynaphos Studio (954).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Financial Times makes the ranking in partnership with Statista in order to create a list of 1 000 European companies from 31 countries across Europe. They are from all industries and have the highest annual revenue growth between 2014 and 2017.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Among the fastest growing companies, the technology sector dominates with a total of 149 organizations. The country with the largest number of listed companies is Germany &#8211; 230, and London is the city with the most companies on the list &#8211; 63. Thus, despite Brexit, London remains the leader for the third consecutive year &#8211; 78 organisations in the first edition and 74 in the second one. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The full F1000 list is available <a href=\"https:\/\/on.ft.com\/2EApwGC\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a>.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first ranking of 2017 is published <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/ig.ft.com\/ft-1000\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">here<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and the one from last year &#8211; <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/cf0c5fce-3112-11e8-b5bf-23cb17fd1498\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">here<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Seven Bulgarian companies entered the prestigious Financial Times FT1000 ranking of the fastest growing companies in Europe.
