Eleven New Jersey companies made Deloitte’s 26th annual Technology Fast 500 list, a ranking of the 500 fastest-growing technology companies in North America based on percentage revenue growth over three years, released Wednesday.

Cranbury-based biotechnology firm Amicus Therapeutics Inc. ranked highest at No. 52. It grew revenues 3,576% from 2016 to 2019.

OwnBackup, a data recovery, protection and information security firm in Englewood Cliffs, grew sales 1,486% and is ranked No. 79; followed by Woodbridge-based software company Visual Lease, which came in at No. 167. Momentum Solar, an energy tech in South Plainfield, is No. 177; software and SaaS company Mentour Corp. in Edison is No. 215; pharma company Advaxis in Princeton is No. 263; West Orange pharma Nephros is No. 299; communications company Vislink Technologies in Hackettstown is No. 304; South Plainfield pharma PTC Therapeutics is No. 363; medical device company CytoSorbents Corp. in Monmouth Junction is No. 494; and pharmaceutical company ADMA Biologics in Ramsey rounds out the list at No. 500.

“It’s encouraging that we are growing a technology sector that represents several of the key areas driving the economy’s future, such as health care, energy, data security, software and more,” said Paul Krieger, Deloitte’s managing partner for New Jersey in a prepared statement. “We are developing a critical mass that can strengthen our community’s resiliency for uncertain times while also laying the foundation for long-term success.”

Last year, nine New Jersey companies made the list.

The Tri-State area made up 13% of the list, representing the second most common region this year. Silicon Valley was first at 20%. New England was third at 7%, and Greater Washington DC and Los Angeles tied for fourth at 6%.
