Simpler Media Group (SMG) Named to the 2022 Inc. 5000 Annual List

With three-year revenue growth of 139 percent, Simpler Media Group was recognized by Inc. Magazine as one of America’s fastest-growing private companies

Today, Inc. revealed that Simpler Media Group (SMG), a leading B2B technology publisher and a producer of high-impact research and events,  was named to its annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The list represents a one-of-a-kind look at the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent businesses. Facebook, Chobani, Under Armour, Microsoft, Patagonia, and many other well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.

“We are honored to be recognized on the list as one of the fastest growing companies in the US and be named alongside some incredible companies,” commented SMG’s CEO, Brice Dunwoodie. “This recognition is a testament to the work of the entire team and the effort each person dedicates to maintaining a growth mindset while staying focused on delivering value to our communities.”

The companies on the 2022 Inc. 5000 were not only successful, but also demonstrated resilience amid supply chain woes, labor shortages and the ongoing impact of Covid-19.

Complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, region, and other criteria, can be found at www.inc.com/inc5000.

Methodology 

Companies on the 2022 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2018 to 2021. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2018. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2021. (Since then, some on the list may have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2018 is $100,000; the minimum for 2021 is $2 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons. Growth rates used to determine company rankings were calculated to four decimal places. The top 500 companies on the Inc. 5000 are featured in Inc. magazine’s September issue. The entire Inc. 5000 can be found at http://www.inc.com/inc5000
