USF Fast 56 winners lead the charge for phenomenal growth

The University of South Florida will celebrate the entrepreneurial achievements and business leadership of our alumni community at the 13th annual Fast 56 Awards on Friday, Sept. 19.

Named for the university’s founding year, the awards celebrate the 56 fastest-growing businesses owned or led by USF alumni, based on cumulative revenue growth over the previous three years.

“We take immense pride in our Bull-led enterprises because they’re more than just businesses — they’re engines of progress,” says Bill McCausland, MBA ’96 and Life Member, vice president and executive director of the USF Alumni Association. “These alumni are driving innovation, creating opportunities and delivering solutions that enrich our communities.” 

The event will be held in the Peter and Cynthia Zinober Concert Hall at the USF School of Music in Tampa and begins at 5:30 p.m. with a cocktail reception followed by the awards ceremony at 7 p.m.
