IDEAS-TEK Selected for New Mexico Flying 40



IDEAS-TEK has once again been selected for the New Mexico Technology Flying 40, making this the second year in a row that the company has been so recognized. The Flying 40 program, sponsored by the New Mexico Technology Council and Innovate ABQ as well as local and national corporate sponsors, recognizes New Mexico’s fastest-growing technology companies. Flying 40 companies collectively represent over $900 million in revenue and nearly 5,000 jobs in the state of New Mexico.

Earlier in 2019, IDEAS-TEK was also one of two New Mexico firms to be awarded with an NMSBIR Matching Grant by the New Mexico Economic Development Department. NMSBIR (New Mexico Small Business Innovation Research) is a competitive grant to support local, technology-focused companies in bringing their innovations to the marketplace as products and services.

Of the NMSBIR companies, State Economic Development Secretary Alicia J. Keyes said, “These companies are contributing to the state’s economy by developing innovative technology, creating jobs, and working to commercialize their products and technologies.”

On Monday June 17, the Albuquerque Journal recognized IDEAS-TEK as one of the Top 5 Flying 40 Growth Companies with Revenues above $1 Million. At an awards ceremony held on Wednesday at the Albuquerque BioPark Zoo, IDEAS-TEK CEO Dr. Alonzo Vera accepted the Flying 40 award on-stage when IDEAS-TEK was announced as the third fastest-growing Flying 40 technology company in New Mexico.
