AURORA, CO - Advanced Circuits has been recognized for the ninth consecutive year as one of the 50 fastest growing technology companies in Colorado. Advanced Circuits is one of only six companies who have achieved this recognition. The company was also ranked 27th among Colorado technology companies honored in 2007.

In 2007, the company introduced PCB Artist, a free PCB layout software package. The software has reportedly been downloaded more than 25,000 times, and has received a 5-star rating by users on download.com.

“The success of Advanced Circuits relies heavily on customer satisfaction, and we owe much of our continued business success to providing effective tools for daily use,” says John Yacoub, company president and CEO. “The success of PCB Artist coupled with our flagship products and services has continued to be well received by our customers.”

To qualify for the Technology Fast 50, a company must own proprietary technology or intellectual property that contributes a significant portion of the company's operating revenues, or must use a significant proportion of company revenue in the research and development of technology.

“We are very excited about the 2008 opportunity to extend our offering even further. The Direct Logix’s team and products clearly have the deepest integration to major CAM and ERP systems in the world” said Steve Krause, President of Direct Logix. “Each company we have deployed this system at has achieved direct bottom-line business benefit in less than 60 days of use. In 2008 we will continue to develop our global sales channels and look to reward our investors and new equity partner based on our performance.”
