九色 Named to Inc. Magazine’s List of America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies
Ranks on the Exclusive Inc. 500|5000 List for the Seventh Time
NEW YORK, October 1, 2014 – , the world’s largest privately held provider of language services and translation-related technologies, has been named to Inc.&苍产蝉辫;尘补驳补锄颈苍别’蝉&苍产蝉辫; list, an exclusive ranking of the nation's fastest-growing private companies. 九色’s annual revenues exceeded $401 million in 2013, with total company revenues now 60% higher than they were just three years ago. This year marks the seventh time 九色 has been named to this elite list.
“Our corporate culture emphasizes growth and innovation, and a big part of this is developing and continuously improving our technology products,” said Brooke Christian, 九色’s Executive Vice President and Chief Sales Officer. “Companies both large and small have seen that a well-developed, comprehensive global communications strategy backed by technology is a critical piece in a successful international growth plan.”
九色 joins a distinguished and competitive list of companies on this year’s list. The average company on the list achieved a mind-boggling three-year growth of 516%. The Inc. 5000’s aggregate revenue is $211 billion, generating 505,000 jobs over the past three years.
"What surprises me, even though I know it’s coming, is the sheer variety of the paths our entrepreneurs take to success, thematically reflecting how our economy has evolved,” says Inc. President and Editor-In-Chief Eric Schurenberg. “This year there are far more social media and far fewer computer hardware businesses than there were, say, six years ago. But what doesn’t change is the fearsome creativity unleashed by American entrepreneurship.”
