Spotlight on SAGE.

SAGE Group Holdings Ltd has once again made the InDaily South Australian Business Index for 2019 – a list of the state’s 100 most successful companies - this year coming in at number 56 on the index.

“We are proud to once again make this list, alongside South Australia’s leading businesses,” SAGE Group CEO Adrian Fahey said.

“We've experienced solid growth in revenue and gained more than 80 new employees this financial year alone. This growth reflects an industrial sector that is increasingly invested in finding smarter ways to operate and the continued broadening of our capability,” he said.

The judges thoroughly critiqued companies on a range of aspects of their business operations, including total revenue and market capitalisation.

In order to make the Top 100 list, businesses were required to be a South Australian entity with an Adelaide ownership register, or be a South Australian operated entity. Companies were also required to be founded and majority owned by South Australians (more than 50 percent).

The SAGE Group of companies consists of SAGE Automation, Nukon, Embedded Expertise and Skills Lab; together combining the best thinking, people, processes and technology solutions to help clients along their digital transformation journeys.

Throughout the 2018 financial year SAGE managed to post a total revenue of 96.8 million dollars, while also increasing its workforce from 330 employees to 413 employees - prompting the company to lease another building at the Tonsley Innovation Precinct. The company’s national offices in Brisbane, Darwin, Perth, Sydney, Melbourne, Hobart and Launceston also continue to grow.
