Virginia’s FANTASTIC 50 award program is a signature event of the Virginia Chamber of Commerce. Now in its 24th year, the FANTASTIC 50 program is the only annual statewide award recognizing Virginia’s fastest growing business.
Nominations for the 2019 FANTASTIC 50 were sought last fall from local chambers of commerce, economic development organizations, and through the sponsors’ networks; companies may also nominate themselves.
