Encinitas, Calif.

With 10 full-time employees and 3-year revenue growth of 3,055%, Oceanhouse Media ranked as the 9th fastest growing software company and the 20th fastest growing California-based company on the list.
“We are thrilled to be recognized on this exclusive list and are grateful to our customers and partners for their support over the years,” said Michel Kripalani, President of Oceanhouse Media. “When we joined the app market in January of 2009, the iPad hadn’t even come out yet. Today, the amount of players and competition in the marketplace is astounding. We feel blessed to be doing what we love everyday and to be growing right along with such a thriving industry.”
Oceanhouse Media released their first app “Bowls - Authentic Tibetan Singing Bowls” in March of 2009 and its success led to partnerships with popular children’s book brands and self-improvement content. Today, their catalog of over 300 apps contains interactive digital book apps based on Dr. Seuss, The Berenstain Bears, Little Critter, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and many more. Their self-improvement apps include inspirational calendars, card decks and audio apps from popular authors such as Louise Hay, Dr .Wayne Dyer and Doreen Virture, Ph.D.
Eighteen of the company’s apps have reached the number one spot within their category on the App Store. “The Lorax - Dr. Seuss” reached the number one spot on the overall iPad top 100 paid chart in March 2012. Oceanhouse Media is a first time honoree joining the likes of Intuit, Zappos, Under Armour, Microsoft, Jamba Juice, Timberland, Clif Bar, Pandora, Patagonia, Oracle and other notable Inc. 500 alumni.
