Local business leaders and teams came together on Mar, 10, 2026 at the Canadian War Museum to celebrate Ottawa Business Journal’s Fastest Growing Companies of 2026. The 2026 edition of the Fastest Growing Companies recognized 20 rising Ottawa-based companies that have generated the highest amount of revenue growth in the past year. Featured in OBJ’s February Flagship Magazine, this special issue spotlighted the stories of several top companies, their challenges, secrets to success, and where they are going next.
While this year’s ranking includes a variety of tech firms, it also features companies that come from more “traditional” sectors, including marketing and consulting firms, retailers, and businesses operating in the skilled trades.
We’re doing things a bit differently this year.
In anticipation of the launch of OBJ’s new magazine starting in February 2026, we’re opening the call for applications for our annual Fastest Growing Companies earlier than usual.
Even — or maybe especially — in turbulent times, OBJ’s 2025 Fastest Growing Companies have stayed on top of their game by being ready to adapt to anything that comes their way.
