TGS Insurance Agency Named to the 19th Annual Aggie 100, Honored as a Fastest-Growing Company


COLLEGE STATION, TX, October 30, 2023 – TGS Insurance Agency of Houston, TX is among the top 100 companies from around the world selected for the 19th annual Aggie 100, which honors the fastest-growing companies owned or led by former students of Texas A&M University. The Aggie 100 was founded and is hosted by the McFerrin Center for Entrepreneurship at Texas A&M University.


(L-R) Patrick Gaides, Damon Diamantaras (Class of 1992), and Lanny Hayes (Class of 2003) accept the award on behalf of TGS Insurance Agency at the Hall of Champions at Texas A&M University’s Kyle Field on Friday, October 22, 2021.

The 100 Aggie-owned companies with the highest compound annual revenue growth from 2020 to 2022 were recognized at a formal celebration at the Hall of Champions at Texas A&M University’s Kyle Field on Oct. 27. The honorees were joined in celebration by family, friends, employees, faculty, administrators, current students, and fellow entrepreneurs.


“The 19th year of Aggie 100 was literally one for the books,” said Blake Petty ’98, executive director of the McFerrin Center for Entrepreneurship. “This year saw three Aggie 100 records broken, including the highest number of applications and the highest threshold of a growth rate just to qualify for the list.”


“Any company on the 2023 Aggie 100 should be incredibly proud of this accomplishment as this was the hardest year to make it onto the list,” Petty continued. “As we look ahead to celebrating twenty years of Aggie 100 in 2024, we continue to be impressed by and proud of the accomplishments and successes of Aggie Entrepreneurs. Celebrating and honoring them is always a highlight of our year.”
