America's Fastest-Growing Companies: Lists & Rankings, Online Database: 2009 Inc. 500 and Inc. 5000 Released

From the Inc. 500 (28th Annual) News Release/Summary (.doc)

Inc. magazine today announced its 28th annual Inc. 500, an exclusive ranking of the nation's fastest-growing private companies.

[Snip]

Topping this year’s list is Northern Capital Insurance, a Miami-based firm that is helping to revolutionize Florida’s ailing insurance industry. The company boasted $95 million in revenue in 2008 and an impressive three-year growth rate of 19,812 percent.

The 2009 Inc. 500, reported aggregate revenue of $18.4 billion—up significantly from last year's $13.7 billion—and a median three-year growth rate of 880.5 percent. The companies on this year's list are also responsible for creating more than 55,000 jobs since their founding, making the Inc. 500 perhaps the best example of the impact private, fast-growing cResoompanies can have on the overall U.S. economy. The largest company on the list, flat-panel-TV maker Vizio, broke the $2 billion revenue mark. Complete results of the Inc. 500, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, region, and other criteria, can be found on Inc.com.
