BOSTON, Aug. 16, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Today, Inc. revealed that HqO is No. 75 on 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.
“HqO was established to bring people together,” said Chase Garbarino, Co-Founder and CEO at HqO. “In the four years since founding our company, the way people work has undergone a tremendous transformation. The physical workplace and those responsible for it need to catch up to these changes, and HqO has been proud to help support that evolution. We are committed to making the workplace a place people want to go rather than have to go.”
The companies on the 2022 Inc. 5000 have not only been successful, but have also demonstrated resilience amid supply chain woes, labor shortages, and the ongoing impact of COVID-19. Among the top 500, the average median three-year revenue growth rate soared to 2,144 percent. Together, those companies added more than 68,394 jobs over the past three years.
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. The top 500 companies are featured in the September issue of Inc. magazine, which will be available on August 23.
“The accomplishment of building one of the fastest-growing companies in the U.S., in light of recent economic roadblocks, cannot be overstated,” says Scott Omelianuk, editor-in-chief of Inc. “Inc. is thrilled to honor the companies that have established themselves through innovation, hard work, and rising to the challenges of today.”
Companies trust HqO to help them maneuver through the ever-evolving workplace landscape, by focusing on optimizing their workplace investments, keeping employees engaged, and enhancing their company cultures to attract and retain top talent. HqO’s customers include some of the world’s biggest companies and industry challengers, including Google, Dell, UBS, JLL, Vornado, Related, and more. In addition to continuing to build out its core platform offerings, HqO expanded its global footprint and portfolio through two acquisitions the past year. In November 2021, HqO acquired Office App, a leading European tenant and employee engagement platform, which expanded HqO’s services into the corporate workspace.

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.
