ICON Recognized In Michigan 50 Companies to Watch

ICON Creative Technologies Group (ICON) has been recognized as one of the “Michigan 50 Companies to Watch,” an awards program sponsored by the Edward Lowe Foundation.

Companies nominated for the “Michigan 50 Companies to Watch” list must be second-stage companies, defined as having 6 to 99 full-time-equivalent employees and generating $750,000 to $50 million in annual revenue or working capital from
investors or grants. In addition, the companies must be privately held and headquartered in Michigan.

“ICON is extremely pleased to be recognized as one of Michigan’s 50 Companies to Watch,” says ICON CEO, Rob Cleveland. “With so much upheaval in the local economy, emerging companies like the Michigan 50 Award winners are increasingly important to the State of Michigan. We hope this award sheds light on smaller businesses who are making a difference here, and prompts legislators to move towards policies that encourage small business expansion. With the right
environment for growth, some of today’s 50 Companies to Watch could be tomorrow’s leading Michigan employers.

ICON is: an interactive agency with equal competencies in enterprise-level programming and creative design geared for the web and other interactive platforms. ICON’s strength in the interactive business comes from an internal process of technical innovation.

Winners were selected by judges from the banking, economic development, entrepreneurship development and venture capital communities. Judges evaluated the nominees’ demonstrated intent and capacity to grow based on one or more of
the following:

  • Employee or sales growth.
  • Exceptional entrepreneurial leadership.
  • Sustainable competitive advantage.
  • Other notable factors that showcase the company’s success.
ICON will be honored at an awards ceremony during the third annual Michigan Celebrates Small Business event, April 24 in Lansing.
