Washington, D.C. (PRWEB) September 05, 2014 -- Higher Logic, the leading industry provider of cloud-based community platforms, has ranked as a top Washington, D.C. company in the annual Inc. 500/5000, an exclusive ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. As a multi-year honoree, Higher Logic’s overall ranking is 2,374 and has been featured on the list for three consecutive years. Higher Logic was also named one of the 50 “Great Places to Work” in the Washington, D.C. area earlier this year, by The Washingtonian magazine.
