About the Inc. 500/5000:
Introduced in 1982 by Inc. Magazine, the Inc. 500 is a prestigious annual list of the 500 fastest-growing private companies in the United States. The Inc. 5000, introduced in 2007, is an expansion of the original list, ranking the country’s top 5000 fastest-growing private companies and features a special designation of the top 10% of the list as the Inc. 500. The Inc. 500/ 5000 represents the most comprehensive look at a very important segment of the economy—America’s independent entrepreneurs.
The Inc. 5000 is ranked according to percentage revenue growth over a four-year period. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by the first week of the starting calendar year, and therefore able to show four full calendar years of sales. Additionally, they must have been U.S.-based, privately held, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31 of the last year measured. Revenue in the initial year must have been at least $200,000, and revenue in the most recent year must have been at least $2 million. To make the cut for the Inc. 500, companies have to have achieved a minimum of 770% in sales growth.
