Blackline’s growth is credited to increased market adoption of its G7 connected safety wearables and cloud services. G7 has set a new standard for keeping workers safe in the industrial workplace with tens of thousands of employees using G7 devices in over 50 countries. G7 products feature integrated communications, gas detection, two-way voice calling, location technology and push-to-talk that works like a walkie-talkie. Businesses around the world are underway with digital transformation and Blackline’s G7 wearables stream data to the Blackline Cloud, empowering businesses with advanced insights and helping them improve safety, efficiency and quality.

“It’s our vision at Blackline to transform the industrial workplace through connected safety technology, and our dedicated teams are making that vision a reality through their unwavering resilience, leadership and commitment to innovation,” said Cody Slater, CEO and Chairman of Blackline Safety. “Our growth and position as a leader in connected worker technology underscores our ability to meet the needs of every customer and scenario, ensuring that workers have the technology they need to get the job done and return home safe.”

“For more than 25 years, we’ve been honoring companies that define the cutting edge and this year’s Technology Fast 500 list is proof positive that technology — from software and digital media platforms, to biotech — truly does permeate so many facets of our lives,” said Paul Silverglate, vice chairman, Deloitte LLP and U.S. technology sector leader. “We congratulate this year’s winners, especially during a time when innovation is needed more than ever to address the monumental challenges posed by the pandemic.”

“Each year the Technology Fast 500 listing validates how important technology innovation is to our daily lives. It was interesting to see this year that while software companies continued to dominate, biotech companies rose to the top of the winners list for the first time, demonstrating that new categories of innovation are accelerating in the pursuit of making life easier, safer and more productive,” said Mohana Dissanayake, partner, Deloitte & Touche LLP, and industry leader for technology, media and telecommunications, within Deloitte’s audit and assurance practice. “We extend sincere congratulations to these well-deserved winners — who all embody a spirit of curiosity and a never-ending commitment to making technology advancements possible.”
