CALGARY, Nov. 14, 2013 /CNW/ - Solium Capital Inc. ("Solium") (TSX: SUM), the leading provider of software-as-a-service for global equity-based incentive plans administration, financial reporting and compliance, today announced that it is named as one of Canada's fastest growing technology companies in the Deloitte Technology Fast 50TM awards for technological innovation, entrepreneurship, rapid growth and leadership, based on the percentage of revenue growth over five years. Solium's increase in revenues of 195 percent from 2008 to 2012 resulted in a 42 ranking.

"They are remarkable companies that show dedication, drive and commitment that are key to growth in the Canadian technology sector."
"We are pleased to once again be recognized by Deloitte as among one of the 50 fastest growing technology companies in Canada," said Mike Broadfoot, Managing Director, President and CEO of Solium. "The growth we have achieved in our business is a direct result of the acceptance of Solium's industry-leading technology as the only equity administration platform with end to end global capabilities on a single platform."
