Deloitte Technology Fast 50 Award: MessengerPeople ranks among the TOP 10!
At the prestigious Deloitte Technology Fast 50 Award, MessengerPeople got honoured as one of the top 10 fastest growing technology companies in Germany. The award reflects the strong growth of our technology start-up over the past four years, which would not have been possible without the outstanding performance of the entire team.
The Deloitte Technology Fast 50 Award
With the Technology Fast 50 Award, Deloitte, the prestigious auditing firm, annually honors the fastest growing technology companies in the area of hardware, software, communications, media and entertainment, healthcare and life sciences, environmental technology and FinTech.

In Germany, Deloitte’s Technology Fast 50 award has been held for the 17th time this year. For entrepreneurs participating in the competition, it offers access to cooperations, capital and customers.
Thanks to our expertise as consultants, we at Deloitte know that there is hardly any industry today doing without advances in technology. Innovative technology is key for the future of business across all industries, it provides attractive offers to customers and thus strengthens Germany as business location.

Why has MessengerPeople been ranked among the top 10?
What we brought to the table at Deloitte’s Technology Fast 50 Award? The centerpiece of our work: the Messenger Communication Platform (MCP): a software solution we developed which enables companies to professionally communicate with their customers via the most relevant messaging apps worldwide ( WhatsApp , Facebook Messenger , Apple Business Chat, Telegram , Viber und Notify ).
The Messenger Communication Platform is the world’s first ticketing system for professional customer communication via messaging apps. With this easy-to-use software solution, we offer numerous helpful features in one single dashboard. Always keep control and an overview of all incoming customer inquiries and answer them in just a few clicks. Our solution offers a GDPR compliant data processing process and a simple implementation of chatbots without any programming knowledge needed.
MessengerPeople-CEO and founder Franz Buchenberger
With the MessengerPeople solution, more than 2,000 companies worldwide – including about one third of DAX companies – and more than 20 million end users have already used the advantages of WhatsApp and Co. as a means of communication between companies and customers.
Our customers, who are already setting the communication standard of the future with their Messenger service today, aktually deserve this award.

Already in 2017, 2018 and 2019 we were awarded “Innovator of the Year” by the German business magazine brand eins. And the success story of our company, which was by the way only founded in 2015, has just begun, says CEO Franz Buchenberger.
Latest five years from now, I am sure that messaging apps have established themselves as THE standard platform for every kind of digital interaction – be it customer service, food orders and deliveries, direct shopping, in-app payment, as well as travel bookings to taxi ordering or dating services. As MessengerPeople, it is our aim to play a decisive role in shaping this development.
