Inc. 500 & Inc. 5000
Introducing the Inc. 500 in 1982, the magazine has since showcased the fastest-growing privately held companies across the United States. After 25 years, the magazine revamped the rapid pace of innovative companies with the Inc. 5000. Since its inception, the Inc. 500 has become the top-tier list that many private business owners strive for.
The Inc. 5000 is ranked according to the percentage of revenue growth that the companies experience over a three-year period. Inc. Magazine metrics this list carefully, only accounting for privately-held, independent businesses located and conceived in the United States.
Inc. Magazine hosts annual conferences of the Inc. 500 & the Inc. 5000 to advertise the growths witnessed in the ever-changing business world. The conference often hosts workshops and renowned keynote speakers to offer experience and tips to all who attend. Some notable speakers include Mark Cuban, Alex Rodriguez, Venus Williams, Sara Blakely, and much more.
