Rochester has always been known as a region of innovation spurred by a strong entrepreneurial spirit. In recognition of that spirit, Greater Rochester Chamber of Commerce and KPMG LLP are pleased to include Patriot Towers in the annual Rochester Chamber Top 100, a program that recognizes the fastest-growing privately owned companies in the Greater Rochester region. “It is an honor to be among such an innovative and dynamic group of companies, and I’m very proud of the Patriot team”. Said President Rich Schickler.
Greater Rochester Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Bob Duffy said, “This year’s Rochester Chamber Top 100 list shows the fabulous success and amazing diversity that exists in the Rochester and Finger Lakes region’s economic engine. Service companies appeared most on the list, followed by construction, technology, manufacturing, and financial. The one hundred companies combined for more than $12.1 billion in total revenue and employed nearly 23,000 people in the Rochester area. Rochester Chamber congratulates the Top 100 businesses and wishes them continued success and growth.”
To be eligible for the Rochester Chamber Top 100, businesses must be independent, privately held, headquartered in the nine-county Finger Lakes region, and have revenue of at least $1 million in each of the three most recent fiscal years. The program recognizes Rochester’s reputation as a region of innovation spurred by a strong entrepreneurial spirit.
