Led by online electricity retailer Powershop, 37 New Zealand companies were among those acknowledged as being among the region’s fastest growing companies in the 2011 edition of the Deloitte Technology Fast 500 Asia Pacific index announced in Hong Kong on 1 December.

Every year since 2002, the CEOs from nominated fastest-growing technology companies in Asia Pacific are surveyed as part of the Deloitte Technology Fast 500 Asia Pacific programme. They are asked about their hopes and fears for their sector, their views on the secrets of success and other key leadership issues.
