August 12, 2020 [ASHEVILLE, NC] – Inc. magazine today revealed that Cloud for Good is No. 4116 on its annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. The list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the American economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent small businesses. Intuit, Zappos, Under Armour, Microsoft, Patagonia, and many other well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.
“Cloud for Good is honored to be recognized, for the seventh year in a row, alongside so many incredible companies on the Inc. 5000,” said Tal Frankfurt, Cloud for Good Founder and CEO. “This recognition represents the passion of our staff and the tireless efforts we put forth to create positive change for our clients through technology. Placing on the Inc. 5000 validates these efforts and allows us to reach more clients in need of transformational value through the Salesforce platform.”
Not only have the companies on the 2020 Inc. 5000 been very competitive within their markets, but the list as a whole shows staggering growth compared with prior lists as well. The 2020 Inc. 5000 achieved an incredible three-year average growth of over 500 percent, and a median rate of 165 percent. The Inc. 5000’s aggregate revenue was $209 billion in 2019, accounting for over 1 million jobs over the past three years.
“To be ranked amongst some of the world’s most prominent industry leaders and innovators is a true honor,” said Vice President of Sales Bryan Gould. “Our continued growth over the last 7 years is a testament to the value our talented Goodies are able to create within both higher education and the nonprofit sectors. We show up for work each and every day with the mindset and intention necessary to making a quantifiable impact in the world. Recognition from the Inc. 5000 is both humbling and reaffirming, and we look forward to continuing the work deserving of this distinguished recognition.”
