PORTLAND, Maine (August 14, 2019). Tilson, a national network deployment and IT professional services firm, announced today that it has again earned a place on the Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. This is the ninth consecutive year Tilson has been named to the list. Out of the thousands of companies that have applied, only a fraction of companies on the list have ranked more than once, and a mere half a percent have made the list nine times, according to Inc. Media. Tilson rose 23 spots and earned the position of 1773 this year. Tilson joins a select few of elite firms including Microsoft, Timberland, Vizio, Intuit, Chobani, Oracle, and Zappos.com as an honoree of the Inc. 5000.
“It takes a very talented and dedicated group to reach this level of success” said Tilson CEO
Joshua Broder.
“To be recognized for
the
ninth time on the Inc. 5000
is an extraordinary
honor and reflection of Tilson’s company culture, the growing complexity and scale of our
projects and the loyalty of our clients.
Our team is committed to designing solutions that fit the needs of our
clients and to sustain our
competitive advantage in the industry.
I look forward to continued
growth in the years to come.”
Signs of Tilson’s growth over the past
year
include the addition of nearly 200 new employees,
including former State of
Maine Director of Veterans’ Services, Adria Horn as VP of Workforce, Shaun McCarthy, CFO, former Chief Financial Officer and Vice President
of
Finance and Corporate Controller at Casa Systems, and most
recently, Elin Katz, former Connecticut Consumer Counsel
to
lead Tilson’s Energy Consulting Division.
The Inc. 5000
list represents a unique look at
the
most successful companies within the American economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent
small
businesses. With more than 550 employees in 23 locations nationwide, Tilson is among top categories including:
• # 7 Top Maine Companies
• # 30 Top Telecommunications Companies
• Hall of Fame 9-Time Inc. 5000 Honoree
“This year, the winners have, once again, placed the bar very high” states James Ledbetter, Editor in Chief, Inc. Media. “Companies that made the list, on average, have grown sixfold since 2015. During a stretch when the economy grew around 12 percent, that’s a result most businesses can only dream of.”
