Optimal Appears on Inc. 5000 List for Third Time

Rockville, MD – Optimal Networks, Inc., a firm that provides outsourced IT, consulting, and premium cloud services, has been recognized by Inc. magazine on its 35th annual Inc. 5000—the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. The list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the American economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent small businesses. Companies such as Microsoft, Dell, Domino’s Pizza, Pandora, Timberland, LinkedIn, Yelp, Zillow, and many other well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees of the Inc. 5000.

“The entire Optimal family is honored to be included on such a prestigious list for the third time,” said Heinan Landa, President and CEO of Optimal Networks. “Our team’s dedication to service and providing our clients with real business outcomes using technology is what has allowed us to grow consistently, despite the difficult economic environment of the past few years. We’re grateful that those efforts have been recognized.”

The 2016 Inc. 5000 is the most competitive crop in the list’s history. The average company on the list achieved an astounding three-year growth of 433%. The Inc. 5000’s aggregate revenue is $200 billion, and the companies on the list collectively generated 640,000 jobs over the past three years, or about 8% of all jobs created in the entire economy during that period.

“The Inc. 5000 list stands out where it really counts,” says Inc. President and Editor-In-Chief Eric Schurenberg. “It honors real achievement by a founder or a team of them. No one makes the Inc. 5000 without building something great – usually from scratch. That’s one of the hardest things to do in business, as every company founder knows. But without it, free enterprise fails.”

The annual Inc. 5000 event honoring all the companies on the list will be held from October 18 through 20, in San Antonio, TX.
