Named one of America’s Fastest Growing Private Companies
New York, NY (August 21, 2012) – Stage 2 Networks, a cloud communications leader in the New York metropolitan area, announced today its ranking on Inc. Magazine’s 31st annual Inc. 500|5000, an exclusive list of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies in America. The list represents a comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy—America’s independent entrepreneurs. This marks the third consecutive year the company has been named to the Inc. 5000 list joining a pedigree of enterprises, many of which have grown to become national icons—including companies such as Microsoft, Zappos, Intuit, Jamba Juice, Zipcar, Clif Bar, Vizio, Oracle, and many other well-known names.
“We are honored to attain a coveted ranking in this year’s Inc. 5000 list for the third year in a row,” says Joe Gillette, CEO of Stage 2 Networks. “Our team has demonstrated incredible commitment to our success, and passion for our customers in order to achieve such a high growth rate during very challenging times for our nation’s economy.”
The 2012 Inc. 5000, unveiled in the September issue of Inc., is the most competitive crop in the list’s history. “Now, more than ever, we depend on Inc. 500/5000 companies to spur innovation, provide jobs, and drive the economy forward. Growth companies, not large corporations, are where the action is,” says Inc. magazine Editor Eric Schurenberg.
