With Three-Year Revenue Growth of 773% Percent, This Marks Fortreum's 2nd Time on the List
LANSDOWNE, Va., Aug. 14, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Inc., the leading media brand and playbook for the entrepreneurs and business leaders shaping our future, today announced that Fortreum ranks No. 523 on the 2025 Inc. 5000, its annual list of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The prestigious ranking provides a data-driven look at the most successful companies within the economy's most dynamic segment—its independent, entrepreneurial businesses. Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Under Armour, Timberland, Oracle, Patagonia, and many other household-name brands gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.
"Earning a spot on the Inc. 5000 for the second year in a row is a testament to our team's relentless commitment to excellence, innovation, and trust in cybersecurity. Our growth reflects not just the strength of our solutions, but the deep partnerships we build with our clients to protect what matters most.," says co-founder, James Leach.
This year's Inc. 5000 honorees have demonstrated exceptional growth while navigating economic uncertainty, inflationary pressure, and a fluctuating labor market. Among the top 500 companies on the list, the median three-year revenue growth rate reached 1,552 percent, and those companies have collectively added more than 48,678 jobs to the U.S. economy over the past three years. 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.
"Making the Inc. 5000 is always a remarkable achievement, but earning a spot this year speaks volumes about a company's tenacity and clarity of vision," says Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief of Inc. "These businesses have thrived amid rising costs, shifting global dynamics, and constant change. They didn't just weather the storm—they grew through it, and their stories are a powerful reminder that the entrepreneurial spirit is the engine of the U.S. economy."
Inc. will celebrate the honorees at the 2025 Inc. 5000 Conference & Gala, taking place October 22–24 in Phoenix, and the top 500 will be listed in the Fall issue of Inc. Magazine.
Michael Carter, co-founder of Fortreum, stated, "Earning a spot on the Inc. 5000 for the second year in a row is really a reflection of our customers' trust. Their challenges drive our innovation, and their wins are our wins. This recognition belongs to them as much as it does to our team."
