BGAT News Bluegate Corporation Receives Fast Tech 50 Award from the Houston Business Journal for the Third Consecutive Year
HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Bluegate Corp. (OTCBB:BGAT), provider of the nation’s
only Medical Grade Network® that allows
hospitals and physicians to communicate in a secure private network, was
selected as a recipient of Houston’s Fast Tech
50 Award, honoring the fifty fastest growing Houston-based technology
companies.
“It is an honor to receive the Fast Tech 50
Award for the third consecutive year and is further validation of
Bluegate’s business model,”
said Manfred Sternberg, Bluegate’s CEO. “Bluegate
is in the unique position of being a trusted third-party in the
relationship between hospitals and physicians designed to achieve
physician and clinical integration, improving patient care. Not only is
the healthcare sector the fastest growing segment of Information
Technology, but healthcare is the largest service sector of our national
economy, and as the baby boomers start to retire in about 7 years the
healthcare system will experience more use than ever before,”
said Mr. Sternberg. “That’s
why President Bush and Newt Gingrich agree with Hillary Clinton and Ted
Kennedy on the issue that Healthcare Information Technology is so
critical because it will not only save money but it will actually save
lives. On top of all of that, Bluegate’s home
is Houston, Texas, location of the largest Medical Center in the world.
If timing and location are everything then Bluegate is certainly in the
right place at the right time not only achieve our business objectives
but also to help Houston and the United States continue to advance in
providing the best patient care in the world,”
Mr. Sternberg added.
The Fast Tech 50 is awarded to companies with the highest percentage of
revenue growth in Houston each year. This year Bluegate ranked as the 11th
fastest growing company with 125% growth in 2005 over the previous year.
