Companies on the 2027 Inc. Regional Lists are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2023 to 2025. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2023. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2025. (Since then, some on the list may have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2023 is $100,000; the minimum for 2025 is $1 million.
As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons.
