Signpost Named to Inc. 500|5000's Annual List of Fastest-Growing Private Companies


Inc. magazine today ranked Signpost No. 330 on its 35th annual Inc. 500|5000, an exclusive ranking of the nation's fastest-growing private companies. The list represents a comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy - America's independent entrepreneurs. Companies such as Intuit (News - Alert), Zappos, Under Armour, Microsoft, GoPro, Clif Bar, Timberland and Oracle, among other notable alumni, have gained early exposure as members of the elite Inc. 500|5000.

"We're honored to have Inc. recognize Signpost's growth and entrepreneurial spirit," said Stuart Wall, CEO and founder of Signpost. "Our team is dedicated to empowering businesses with consumers and being named to the Inc. 500|5000 list is validation that Signpost is a powerful player in the AI and bot economy."

To date, this year represents the most competitive crop in the list's history. The average company on the list achieved a mind-boggling three-year growth of 433 percent. The Inc. 5000's aggregate revenue is $200 billion, and the companies on the list collectively generated 640,000 jobs over the past three years, or about eight percent of all jobs created in the entire economy during that period. Complete results of Inc. 500|5000, includig company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, region, and other criteria, can be found at www.inc.com/inc5000.



"The Inc. 500|5000 list stands out where it really counts," said Inc. President and Editor-In-Chief Eric Schurenberg. "It honors real achievement by a founder or a team of them. No one makes the list without building something great - usually from scratch. That's one of the hardest things to do in business, as every company founder knows. But without it, free enterprise fails."

The annual Inc. event honoring all the companies on the list will be held from October 18 through 20, in San Antonio, TX. Speakers include some of the greatest entrepreneurs of this and past generations, such as best-selling author and strategist Tony Robbins; SoulCycle co-founders Elizabeth Cutler and Julie Rice; Cornerstone OnDemand founder, president and CEO Adam Miller; Marvell Technology Group (News - Alert) director and co-founder Weili Dai; and New Belgium Brewing co-founder and executive chair Kim Jordan.
