GTT Communications, Inc. (NYSE: GTT), the leading global cloud networking provider to multinational clients, announced today that it has been recognized by Washington Business Journal (WBJ) for the fourth time as one of the 50 Fastest Growing Companies in the Washington, D.C. region. WBJ bases its ranking for the award on the three-year revenue growth rate of each company.
GTT's performance and ranking is a result of a consistent and focused growth strategy providing cloud network services to multinational clients and extending secure network connectivity to any location in the world and any application in the cloud. In 2017, the company completed several strategic acquisitions including Hibernia Networks and Global Capacity. GTT also launched new services this year including optical transport, DDoS mitigation and its industry-leading SD-WAN service, leveraging GTT's Tier 1 Internet backbone and extensive and cost-effective range of broadband and internet connectivity options.

"This award reflects GTT's growing leadership in the market and the outstanding contributions of the entire GTT team as we deliver on our purpose of connecting people across organizations and around the world."
