Challenger energy-provider Bulb is Britain’s fastest-growing private business, having seen its valuation multiply 351 times during the three years since 2015. Bulb’s exceptional performance is noted in a new report from market research group Beauhurst and crowdfunding platform SyndicateRoom, which profiled the 100 fastest-growing companies based on how their valuations have grown over the past three years. “When Amit and I set out in 2015, we did not expect Bulb to grow so quickly,” Bulb cofounder Hayden Wood told Forbes. Beauhurst’s ranking shows hints of a more diverse U.K. startup scene, with 67 of the top 100 companies based in London, down slightly from the 71 who were based in the capital last year.
