Croatian Technology Companies Shine on Deloitte’s Fast 50 List

The release of this year’s Deloitte CE Technology Fast 50 report for 2025 reaffirms the important role of Central Europe as one of the most dynamic technology regions in the world. Despite economic challenges, the growth rate among the 50 fastest growing technology companies was an impressive 1,219 percent, further establishing the region as a stronghold of innovation. Out of more than 300 applicants, only 50 companies made it to the list, with the majority once again being software companies.

First place, as in the previous year, was won by the Czech company Oddin.gg with a growth of 4,267 percent.

– Given the circumstances, this is yet another extraordinary result from our creative technology stars. Oddin.gg is a true global leader based on advanced applications of machine learning and data science – stated Natko Sertić, the chief tax partner in the CE South region. He added that among the applicants, there are numerous companies that, although they did not make it into the top 50, show exceptional potential and a strong impact on the development of the regional technology industry.

In this context, Croatia stands out, having achieved significant success this year with as many as seven companies in the main category. The highest ranked is Zagreb’s Margins, which with a growth of 1,660 percent secured the 11th position, followed closely by Cactus Code with a growth of 1,650 percent, while Orqa (19th place), Spectral Core (25th), Farseer (29th), B.I.D. Group (33rd) and Utiliter (41st) further confirmed that the domestic technology scene has strength and competitiveness at the European level.

– This recognition means a lot to us as it confirms the value we build through technological excellence and the development of advanced AI solutions. It is nice to see that this approach is recognized beyond Croatia – said Margins founder Anđelo Brzoja.

Croatia also has a representative in the Companies to Watch category, aimed at young companies that do not yet meet the criteria for entry into the main ranking. Zagreb’s Cyber64 secured 9th place with a growth of 145 percent, placing it among the most promising new software companies in the region.

Additionally, four Croatian companies were declared Impact Stars due to the positive impact of their technologies in areas such as fintech, ESG, biotech, defense, and cybersecurity. These are Aircash, CircuitMess, Devot Solutions, and Orqa, further confirming that Croatian innovators bring not only commercial value but also broader social contributions.

Deloitte also awarded a special AI Value Driver award for the first time this year, in collaboration with Google Cloud, for the most successful application of generative artificial intelligence in the real world. The first recipient is Polish Surveily, which transforms classic CCTV infrastructure into intelligent security systems based on computer vision, and their solutions are already being applied across Europe in energy, chemical industry, and logistics.

This year’s Fast 50 edition once again confirms that Croatia is increasingly recognized as part of the growing, innovative Central European technology ecosystem that achieves global results.
