The prestigious ranking provides a data-driven look at the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent, entrepreneurial businesses.

“It is with immense pride and gratitude that Daston once again takes its place on the Inc. 5000 list,” affirmed Greg Callen, President of Daston Corporation. “As a three-time consecutive honoree, this award is a testament to our outstanding team and their unwavering dedication to exceeding client expectations. Their ability to consistently understand complex needs and deliver innovative IT solutions that transform organizations while safeguarding sensitive data is unparalleled.”
“This recognition is a testament to our team’s relentless pursuit of excellence and innovation,” said Adam Ulan, SVP of Google Business for Daston. “Being named to the Inc. 5000 for the third consecutive year is a proud moment for us and a reflection of our commitment to driving impactful results for our clients.”
Joe Alston, VP of Sales at Daston, added, “Our inclusion in the Inc. 5000 once again underscores our dedication to delivering exceptional solutions and services to the private and public sectors as well as our community of Government Contractors. We are honored to be among such esteemed companies and look forward to continuing our growth journey.”
The Inc. 5000 class of 2024 represents companies that have driven rapid revenue growth while navigating inflationary pressure, the rising costs of capital, and seemingly intractable hiring challenges. Among this year’s top 500 companies, the average median three-year revenue growth rate is 1,637 percent. In all, this year’s Inc. 5000 companies have added 874,458 jobs to the economy over the past three years.
“One of the greatest joys of my job is going through the Inc. 5000 list,” says Mike Hofman, who recently joined Inc. as editor-in-chief. “To see all of the intriguing and surprising ways that companies are transforming sectors, from health care and AI to apparel and pet food, is fascinating for me as a journalist and storyteller. Congratulations to this year’s honorees, as well, for growing their businesses fast despite the economic disruption we all faced over the past three years, from supply chain woes to inflation to changes in the workforce.”

Methodology
Companies on the 2024 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2020 to 2023. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2020. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2023. (Since then, some on the list may have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2020 is $100,000; the minimum for 2023 is $2 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons. Growth rates used to determine company rankings were calculated to four decimal places.For complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, location, and other criteria, go to www.inc.com/inc5000.
