3 Years on the Inc. 5000 List of Fastest-Growing Companies
There are
nearly 7 million private companies in America, and all of them
aspire to be on the Inc. 500/5000 list. For the 3rd consecutive
year, Wimmer Solutions has been honored with a spot in the Inc.
5000, which showcases America's fastest growing companies.
The Inc. 5000 are the nation's most successful private companies,
ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2007 through
2010. Businesses named to the Inc. 5000 list must be U.S.-based,
privately held, for-profit, independent companies. Revenue in 2007
must have been at least $100,000, and revenue in 2010 must have
been at least $2 million. The Inc. 5000 are responsible for
creating more than 370,000 jobs in the last three years, making the
list perhaps the best example of the impact private, fast-growing
companies can have on the economy.
The Inc. 5000 companies, including Wimmer Solutions, have been profiled
on Inc.com and will be celebrated at the Inc. 500|5000
Conference and Awards Ceremony from September 22-24, 2011, at the
Gaylord National Hotel and Convention Center in National Harbor,
Maryland.
The 2011 Inc. 500|5000 Conference and Awards Ceremony honors 29
years of Inc.'s ranking of the fastest-growing privately
held companies in America. The event will bring together previous
and current winners as well as the greater business community to
recognize creativity, dedication and hard work.
"Wimmer's place in the Inc. 5000 serves not only as recognition
of our success as a company, but also as confirmation of the
changing role of the consulting industry in today's economy," said
Matt Sauri, CEO. "Where agility and responsiveness used to be all
you needed to get ahead, we believe that real creativity, care, and
community-building are key ingredients in our recipe for
success."
His explanation for Wimmer's continued success?
"As our company has expanded, we've remained focused on doing
right by our employees - focusing on giving them the support they
need to be successful and creating a real sense of community even
as we grow; this honor helps validate those efforts."
The Inc. 5000 winners were selected among thousands of nominated
privately held American companies. Distinguished previous winners
include Intuit, Zappos, Under Armour, Microsoft, Jamba Juice,
Timberland, ClifBar, Patagonia, Oracle and Zipcar. We are proud to
be included in the 2011 list along with so many other growing
companies, and will work hard to keep up the growth and progress of
Wimmer in the years to come!
