TIS Recognized in Dallas
100 5th Consecutive Year
Dallas, TX,
November 5, 2009 -
In its 19th year, the Dallas 100™
Awards, presented by the SMU Cox Caruth Institute for
Entrepreneurship, recognized the fastest growing, privately held
companies in the Dallas area. Despite the recession, the success of
these companies indicates the entrepreneurial spirit is alive and well
in North Texas, as these winning companies combined to generate sales
of $8.4 billion in the past three years, grew average sales from 2006
to 2008 by 176 percent, and grew number of employees from 14,764 in
2006 to 26,142 in 2008. Sales for the top 10 winners combined
represent a 480 percent increase in 2008 over sales in 2006.
"Texas Institute for Surgery is honored to be recognized by the Dallas 100 for the 5th
year in a row. In these times of economic hardship, it is a testament to the compassion and quality of surgical services
we provide for our patients that allows us to continue to grow," said TIS president Debbie Hay, RN, BSN, CASC.
The top companies were recognized at an
awards ceremony at the Meyerson Symphony Center November 4, with keynote
speaker Sam Wyly, entrepreneur, author and founder of Green Mountain
Energy. Lisa Bormaster, publisher of the
Dallas Business Journal, and
Kevin Knox, assistant dean of external relations, SMU Cox School of
Business, served as emcees for the event.
"In some ways the Dallas 100 winning
companies seem to defy gravity. In a 10% unemployment national
environment they created more than 11,000 new jobs over the last two
years,” said Jerry White, director of the Caruth Institute. “These
companies prove that with innovative ideas and top quality management
dynamic, fast growth businesses can be built even in challenging
environments."
In order to qualify for the Dallas 100™, a
company must be an independent, privately held corporation, proprietorship
or partnership (not a subsidiary of a parent company) as of May 1, 2008;
be headquartered in the Dallas area; have had sales of more than $500,000
in fiscal 2006; have had sales of not more than $75,000,000 in 2006; have
a three-year sales history reflecting growth; and, have a credit report
and character satisfactory to the Dallas 100™, determined at the sole
