During the spotlight program the council recognized Measurement Specialties, a Hampton-based designer and manufacturer of sensors and sensor-based systems.
A presenter summarized the company’s history — founded in 1983, headquarters in Hampton’s Hampton Roads Center — and said Measurement Specialties had global sales of about $359,000,000 in fiscal 2013 and had acquired 23 companies and product lines. The presenter noted the company’s rankings on business lists: number 89 on Fortune’s 2013 list of 100 fastest-growing companies and number 76 on Forbes’s top 100 list. The company could not attend because of a conflicting global meeting; the city said it intends to invite company representatives back for an in-person recognition.
Council members thanked Measurement Specialties for maintaining corporate headquarters in Hampton and for its international operations.
