Leading Cloud Data Backup and Restore Innovator Continues to Earn Industry Accolades
Ottawa, November 7, 2019 – Rewind, a leading cloud data backup and restore provider, has received a Companies-to-Watch award, which spotlights emerging companies that exhibit strong growth and show potential to be a future candidate for the Technology Fast 50 award.
Rewind CEO Mike Potter credits the company’s early stage success to its relentless commitment to solving gaps in data recovery for today’s cloud applications. “Now serving more than 20,000 accounts, Rewind protects critical account-level data for some of the world’s top SaaS platforms, and we are just scratching of what is possible,” said Potter. “It is an honour to be part of such a prestigious list with fellow Canadian companies that are pushing innovations to new heights.”
Companies-to-Watch winners are new companies headquartered in Canada, demonstrating superior technology, effective management experience and common traits of Deloitte Technology Fast 50 award winners. To be eligible, candidates must also devote a significant portion of their operating revenues to creating proprietary technology or intellectual property.
“Companies-to-Watch winners deserve recognition for their early stage growth, bold entrepreneurship and forward thinking,” said Erica Pretorius, Partner and National Leader for the Technology Fast 50™ program at Deloitte Canada. “By demonstrating courage, seeking opportunities, and taking calculated risks, these outstanding companies are key to the success of the technology sector. Every winner should feel a sense of pride for this success, and motivation to continue striving to succeed in the future.”
This recognition for Rewind comes on the heels of additional industry accolades. Rewind recently won the 2019 Ottawa-Gatineau Employee’s Choice Award and was named 2019 “Partner of the Year” by BigCommerce, one of the world’s leading eCommerce platforms.
