Rise8, a company delivering elite software development for critical missions, today announced that it has been recognized as No. 268 on the 2024 Inc. 5000’s annual list of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The prestigious ranking provides a data-driven look at the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent, entrepreneurial businesses. Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Under Armour, Timberland, Oracle, Patagonia, and many other household-name brands gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.
“Rise8 has achieved significant growth over the past 3 years, and this recognition not only validates our continued success as a company, but also reinforces the importance of our mission to revolutionize how the U.S. government builds, deploys, and utilizes software,” said Bryon Kroger, Rise8 CEO and founder. “I’m incredibly proud of all that Rise8 has accomplished and acknowledge that none of this would be possible without our world-class team of Risers and their unmatched talent, dedication, and hard work.”
The Inc. 5000 class of 2024 represents companies that have driven rapid revenue growth while navigating inflationary pressure, the rising costs of capital, and seemingly intractable hiring challenges. Among this year’s top 500 companies, the average median three-year revenue growth rate is 1,637 percent. In all, this year’s Inc. 5000 companies have added 874,458 jobs to the economy over the past three years.
In addition to Rise8 being named to the Inc. 5000 list, the company has also received several accolades including certification from Great Place to Work® for the third year in a row, and its founder and CEO, Bryon Kroger, being named a finalist for FedScoop50’s industry leadership category.
Rise8 will continue this momentum into its annual government and industry conference, Prodacity. This conference is a beacon for govtech leaders at every level who are committed to the continuous delivery of valuable software users love into challenging production environments. Taking place in Nashville, TN on February 4-6, 2025, Prodacity is a movement committed to authenticity and learning that sets the standard for achieving mission outcomes in government.

Congratulations to this year’s honorees, as well, for growing their businesses fast despite the economic disruption we all faced over the past three years, from supply chain woes to inflation to changes in the workforce.”
