Rise8, a company delivering elite software development for critical
missions, today announced that it has been recognized as No. 268 on
the 2024 Inc. 5000’s annual list of the fastest-growing private
companies in America. The prestigious ranking provides a
data-driven look at the most successful companies within the
economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent, entrepreneurial
businesses. Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Under Armour, Timberland,
Oracle, Patagonia, and many other household-name brands gained
their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.
“Rise8 has achieved significant growth over the past 3 years,
and this recognition not only validates our continued success as a
company, but also reinforces the importance of our mission to
revolutionize how the U.S. government builds, deploys, and utilizes
software,” said Bryon Kroger, Rise8 CEO and founder. “I’m
incredibly proud of all that Rise8 has accomplished and acknowledge
that none of this would be possible without our world-class team of
Risers and their unmatched talent, dedication, and hard work.”
The Inc. 5000 class of 2024 represents companies that have
driven rapid revenue growth while navigating inflationary pressure,
the rising costs of capital, and seemingly intractable hiring
challenges. Among this year’s top 500 companies, the average median
three-year revenue growth rate is 1,637 percent. In all, this
year’s Inc. 5000 companies have added 874,458 jobs to the economy
over the past three years.
In addition to Rise8 being named to the Inc. 5000 list, the
company has also received several accolades including certification
from Great Place to Work® for the third year in a row, and its
founder and CEO, Bryon Kroger, being named a finalist for
FedScoop50’s industry leadership category.
Rise8 will continue this momentum into its annual government and
industry conference, Prodacity. This conference is a beacon for
govtech leaders at every level who are committed to the continuous
delivery of valuable software users love into challenging
production environments. Taking place in Nashville, TN on February
4-6, 2025, Prodacity is a movement committed to authenticity and
learning that sets the standard for achieving mission outcomes in
government. More information about the event is available here:

“One of the greatest joys of my job is going through the Inc.
5000 list,” says Mike Hofman, who recently joined Inc. as
editor-in-chief. “To see all of the intriguing and surprising ways
that companies are transforming sectors, from health care and AI to
apparel and pet food, is fascinating for me as a journalist and
storyteller. Congratulations to this year’s honorees, as well, for
growing their businesses fast despite the economic disruption we
all faced over the past three years, from supply chain woes to
inflation to changes in the workforce.”

qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by

may have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue
required for 2020 is $100,000; the minimum for 2023 is $2 million.
As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for

were calculated to four decimal places.
