Kno2 Growth Lands it on 2020 Inc. 5000 List

Boise, ID (Aug. 13, 2020)Inc. Magazine released its 2020 Inc. 5000 list of America’s fastest-growing private companies, and Kno2, the company that provides interoperability to everyone in health care, ranks No. 2107 on the list with three-year sales growth rate of 199.54%.

The list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the American economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent small businesses. Intuit, Zappos, Under Armour, Microsoft, Patagonia, and many other well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.

“Kno2’s inclusion in Inc 5000 is a direct result of the dedication and perseverance of our employees, the amazing partnerships we have developed, and our customers that use Kno2 daily to assist in providing high-quality care to their patients”, said Kno2 CEO Jon Elwell. “Kno2’s growth is not only a numerical achievement; more importantly, it demonstrates the adoption of interoperability in health care. We continue our focus on broad interoperability, made available to all through simple, cost-effective tools that put the right patient information, in the right place at the right time.”

Not only have the companies on the 2020 Inc. 5000 been very competitive within their markets, but the list as a whole shows staggering growth compared with prior lists as well. The 2020 Inc. 5000 achieved an incredible three-year average growth of over 500 percent, and a median rate of 165 percent. The Inc. 5000’s aggregate revenue was $209 billion in 2019, accounting for over 1 million jobs over the past three years.

“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 Oct. 23-27. 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 Dec. 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.
