''Deloitte Technology Fast 50 China companies have shown the strength, vision and temerity to succeed in today’s very competitive technology environment,’' said Charles Yen, managing partner of Deloitte in China Northern Region. ''We applaud the successes of WuXi PharmaTech and acknowledge it as one of the very few to accomplish such a fast growth rate over the past five years.’'
Dr. Ge Li, chairman and CEO of the company, attributes the company’s phenomenal revenue growth to many factors, including the trust and confidence that its collaboration partners place in WuXi PharmaTech, the dedication and hard work of its employees, and its uncompromised service quality and high regard for IP protection. He said, ''Growing the top line enough to make the Deloitte Technology Fast 50 China is a great honor. But WuXi PharmaTech still has a long way to go before it becomes a truly world-class R&D service company.’'
