COMMERCE, MI. (AUGUST 15, 2019)- Inc. magazine today revealed that Managed Security Services Provider (MSSP), Nuspire, is included on the annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies.

“Cybersecurity is one of the fastest growing industries because it has become such a challenge for any and every business, and every employee here at Nuspire is dedicated to providing our customers with a simplified security approach that ensures they are secured from today’s cyber threats,” said Saylor Frase, CEO of Nuspire. “Being included on this list is a true testament to the outstanding work, innovation and dedication of our employees whose mission is to keep our customer’s network secure 24x7x365.

Not only have the companies on the 2019 Inc. 5000 (which are listed online at Inc.com, with the top 500 companies featured in the September issue of Inc., available on newsstands August 20) been very competitive within their markets, but the list as a whole shows staggering growth compared with prior lists. The 2019 Inc. 5000 achieved an astounding three-year average growth of 454 percent, and a median rate of 157 percent. The Inc. 5000’s aggregate revenue was $237.7 billion in 2018, accounting for 1,216,308 jobs over the past three years.

“The companies on this year’s Inc. 5000 have followed so many different paths to success,” says Inc. editor in chief James Ledbetter. “There’s no single course you can follow or investment you can take that will guarantee this kind of spectacular growth. But what they have in common is persistence and seizing opportunities.”

Over the past three years, as evidence included in the Inc 5000 list, Nuspire has experienced tremendous growth.

The 2019 Inc. 5000 is ranked according to percentage revenue growth when comparing 2015 and 2018. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2015. They had to be U.S.-based, privately held, for profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2018. (Since then, a number of companies on the list have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2015 is $100,000; the minimum for 2018 is $2 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons. Companies on the Inc. 500 are featured in Inc.’s September issue.
