Austin, TX (PRWEB) September 19, 2013

Growth Acceleration Partners is proving worthy of its name, with dramatic increases in both revenue and employees leading to a ranking on the coveted Inc. 5000 list. The Inc. 5000 highlights the country’s most rapidly expanding private companies.

Growth Acceleration Partners (GAP) checked in with a ranking of 855, thanks to three-year revenue growth that topped 500 percent. During that time, the company also increased its workforce from just 30 employees to 146.

These strong numbers earned GAP a Texas ranking of 68. Inc. also determined that the company was the 18th-fastest-growing private firm in the Austin metro area.

“We have definitely tapped into a sweet spot in the marketplace,” said Joyce Durst, co-founder of GAP. “More and more businesses are recognizing the growth they can quickly realize by developing effective web-based software and apps for both customers and employees. Partnering with GAP provides a cost-effective software development resource for companies to create these applications.
