Companies were judged by industry experts, insiders and journalists on a variety of criteria including financial performance, innovation, business strategy and market penetration. Winners come from industries that range from clean tech and security to software and cloud computing, and many more.

"2018's crop of Top 100 winners has been among our most intriguing yet," said Red Herring chairman Alex Vieux. "What has excited me most is to see so many people forging niches in high-tech and cutting edge sectors.

In lieu of those 3% commissions, Home Bay charges a low rate of $2,000 to $3,500—a fraction of what traditional agents charge. From within its platform, Home Bay can also integrate escrow services and issue title insurance policies. By keeping the real estate transaction process in-house, consumers save money and time.
