Charleston, S.C.-October 5, 2009- eGroup, Inc. was named as one of the South Carolina's Fastest-Growing Companies program's 2009 Top 25 winners. The South Carolina Chamber is co-sponsoring the 2009 Fastest-Growing program with The Capital Corporation, a middle market investment banking firm located in Greenville, SC. The program recognizes an exceptional and diverse assembly of businesses from across the state.

"This award recognizes our company's strategic approach to sound growth, and it is important to the growth of our state that we continue to have companies that persevere in a tough economy. I'm proud to be a part of a program that celebrates such an outstanding group of entrepreneurs and business owners who continue to rise to the top."

"We would also like to acknowledge The Charleston Digital Corridor for the exposure they have afforded eGroup, and for their efforts to nurture & promote Charleston's knowledge economy to help technology companies like ours thrive," added Carter.

The executives of the Top 25 ranking companies will be guests at the Chamber's prestigious Annual Summit in November, where they will network with representatives from other top-performing companies and key business leaders. During the Annual Summit, the Top 25 ranking companies will be honored at the South Carolina Fastest Growing awards luncheon held at Wild Dunes Resort, Isle of Palms, on November 12th.
