Pantheon Makes Third Consecutive Appearance on Inc. 5000 List

NEW YORK, August 13, 2024 – Inc. revealed today that Pantheon ranks No. 4837 on the 2024 Inc. 5000, its 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.

"Securing a third consecutive spot on the Inc. 5000 list underscores Pantheon's leadership in WebOps," said Josh Koenig, Co-Founder of Pantheon. "Our team's commitment has fueled our progress, and enabled high-performance, high-impact digital experiences for our clients. This recognition marks another milestone in our journey to empower marketers, developers, and designers to create and operate extraordinary websites for their businesses, brands, causes, or campaigns."

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.

“One of the greatest joys of my job is going through the Inc. 5000 list,” says Mike Hofman, who recently joined Inc. as editor-in-chief. “To see all of the intriguing and surprising ways that companies are transforming sectors, from health care and AI to apparel and pet food, is fascinating for me as a journalist and storyteller. 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.”

Pantheon's third inclusion on the Inc. 5000 list, driven by a 79-percent growth rate between 2020 and 2023, reflects its ongoing commitment to simplifying cloud-based website operations. Purpose-built for WordPress and Drupal, the Pantheon Platform integrates digital operations, workflows, and governance into an easy-to-use interface with enterprise-grade security and 24x7 support. This year, Pantheon launched its WebOps Certification Program and introduced a partnership with Lytics, leveraging Generative AI to enhance website personalization. These innovations enable organizations to deliver exceptional experiences that drive real business impact, affirming Pantheon's role in empowering dynamic digital teams with high velocity and comprehensive support.

Pantheon continues to advance its platform to address the growing demands of today’s WebOps teams, enhancing capabilities that bolster development, testing, launch, and management of digital experiences. Recent additions of new security features, performance optimizations, and expanded personalization capabilities ensure that teams can efficiently scale and adapt to rapidly evolving digital landscapes.

Methodology
Companies on the 2024 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2020 to 2023. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2020. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2023. (Since then, some on the list may have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2020 is $100,000; the minimum for 2023 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.
