And so does "Notre compagnie doit grandir rapidement." Although it too is not accepted by Duo.
Later Edit: After having switched to 'entreprise', the answer with 'vite' was allowed.
Depending on the rest of your translation, "vite" may be accepted or not (some translations miss this variant).
I believe it would also be correct to say "Il faut que notre entreprise croisse rapidement". Any feedback?
Well done! Yet, the translators have registered "grandisse/se developpe", not "croisse".
Thank you, I really appreciate the input. I may have other grammar questions down the road. English is my first language, but I studied French at university. I am on Duolingo to learn proper, standard French, to improve the French I already have. Input like yours is very valuable to me as right now, I'm working on some fine points of the language, as in this case, the difference between "grandir" and "croître".

Sometimes 'typo' errors are not accepted. I accidently wrote 'l faut que .....' an obvious typo I would have thought. Then again, sometimes i make a genuine mistake and it gives me a typo. ;-)
C'était bien, pourtant ! I assume the translators have not added "croître" to the list of accepted answers, but I can no longer check it for you.
