Fairfax, VA - April 26, 2007 - ECS has been recognized with the Fantastic Fifty award for 2006 by the Virginia Chamber of Commerce. The 2006 award represents the 3rd consecutive year that ECS has been recognized by the Virginia Chamber of Commerce for excellence in growth.
As a whole, the Fantastic 50 represents the fifty fastest-growing companies in the state. For Hugh Keogh, President and CEO of the Virginia Chamber of Commerce, the Fantastic 50 award evening confirmed "that the entrepreneurs [...] are a testament to the same bold adventuresome spirit that gave birth to our nation and which still thrives in Virginia today."
