SummitET Ranks in the Top Fifty Percent on the 2020 Inc. 5000 List 

August 12, 2020 – St. Petersburg, FL.  – Today, Inc. magazine released its annual list of the nation’s 5000 fastest growing companies. Summit Exercises and Training LLC (SummitET®) is new to the list this year and secured a position in the top 50%. SummitET’s listing occurred as a result of a three-year revenue growth of over 166 percent.  This prestigious list provides a unique look at the top performing companies within the American economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent small businesses. Many well-known corporations gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.

“Our experienced and talented team has garnered attention from the preparedness community and contributed to our notable growth,” stated John Duda, SummitET CEO. “SummitET continues to gain new clients in both the government and private sectors which has been driven by customer confidence and satisfaction in our offerings and customer service.”

Complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and an interactive database can be sorted by industry, region, and other criteria. This information can be found at www.inc.com/inc5000. The top 500 companies are also being featured in the September issue of Inc., available on newsstands August 12.

“The companies on this year’s Inc. 5000 come from nearly every realm of business,” says Inc. editor-in-chief Scott Omelianuk. “From health and software to media and hospitality, the 2020 list proves that no matter the sector, incredible growth is based on the foundations of tenacity and opportunism.”

The annual Inc. 5000 event honoring the companies on the list will be held virtually from October 23 to 27, 2020. As always, speakers will include some of the greatest innovators and business leaders of our generation.

Methodology

The 2020 Inc. 5000 is ranked according to percentage revenue growth when comparing 2016 and 2019. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2016. They had to be U.S.-based, privately held, for profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2019. (Since then, a number of companies on the list have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2016 is $100,000; the minimum for 2019 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. They represent the top tier of the Inc. 5000, which can be found at http://www.inc.com/inc5000.
