(Jan. 26, 2015)** — AOC Solutions announced that it has been chosen as one of Washington SmartCEO’s 2015 Future 50 award winners. The Future 50 program recognizes the greater Washington region’s 50 fastest-growing mid-sized companies, five small Emerging Growth companies and five large Blue Chip companies that have experienced outsized growth based on a combined three-year average of revenue and employee growth.

Cage, Jr., who saw an opportunity in the marketplace to develop a platform for streamlining commercial payments. “Having a vision is only part of the story of our success,” says Cage. “Hiring the right people to make the vision a reality is just as important.” AOC started with a very small team and has grown to a company of more than 200 employees. The Future 50 Awards program kicked off with an application process ending September 2014. More than 550 local business executives and guests are expected to attend this year’s black-tie- optional gala on Jan. 27 to celebrate the winners and their achievements.
