MicroTek Named to First-Ever List of the 5,000 Fastest-Growing Businesses
MicroTek ranked #2,481 on the 2007 Inc. 5000 with 141% revenue growth between 2003 and 2006.
Downers Grove, IL 09/11/2007: MicroTek, the leader in business education facilities and services, announced today that it has been ranked on first-ever list of the 5,000 fastest-growing private companies in America. MicroTek was ranked #2,481 on the 2007 Inc. 5000 list with a sales growth rate of 141% over the past three years.
“The Inc. 5,000 provides the most comprehensive look ever at the most important part of the economy—the entrepreneurial part,” said Inc. 5,000 Project Manager Jim Melloan. “The expansion of the list has allowed us to tell the stories of larger companies, older companies, and a wealth of companies that are underreported in the business media.
The Inc. 5,000 is an extension of Inc. magazine’s annual Inc. 500 list and catches many businesses that are too big to grow at the pace required to make the Inc. 500, as well as a host of smaller firms. Taken as a whole, these companies represent the backbone of the U.S. economy. MicroTek is also a three-time Inc. 500 winner (2001, 2002 & 2004).
“These years of sustained growth have provided a firm foundation for the expansion of our business model from that of a facilities provider to a training solutions partner to our customers,” said Don Slivensky, CEO of MicroTek. “We are honored to be once again recognized by Inc. magazine, and to be included in this amazing list of world-class companies.”
Inc. 5000 Methodology
The 2007 Inc. 5000 list measures revenue growth from 2003 through 2006. To qualify, companies had to be U.S.-based and privately held, independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2006, and have had at least $200,000 in revenue in 2003, and $2 million in 2006.
