SOLUTIONS 30, Europe's leading provider of Solutions for New Technologies is one of the 40 SME's and mid-caps listed on the Paris bourse^(*) to record the most dynamic growth in the past three years.

The "Futur 40" prize was awarded this year during the Rencontres Financières Internationales organised by Paris Europlace.

Now in the third year, the awards were presented by CroissancePlus-PMEfinance, in partnership with F2IC, the French federation of investment clubs, Morningstar, Enternext and Paris Europlace.

Solutions 30 grew sales an impressive 17.63% to a total of €125.2 million in 2015, bringing it to 15th in the ranking of companies listed on the Paris Bourse with the highest rate of growth in the past three years that generate over €5 million in annual sales, while remaining profitable and eligible for the PEA-PME equity savings plan.
