EdTech leader recognized for positive impact on higher ed industry and society

RESTON, Va., Jan. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Ellucian, the leading higher education technology solutions provider, today announced it has been named to the Inc. 2023 Best in Business list in the Education category. Ellucian is one of 215 companies selected out of thousands of applicants in the list's fourth year. The list recognizes the most dynamic companies of all sizes and industries that have had an outstanding influence on their communities, their industries, the environment or society as a whole.

"We are incredibly proud to be selected for Inc.'s Best in Business list, among such a competitive field of innovative and impactful companies," said Laura Ipsen, President and CEO, Ellucian. "This honor is a testament to our team's relentless dedication and commitment to powering higher education. We are pleased to see our efforts to foster positive change for the industry and the ultimate success of students have been acknowledged on this esteemed platform."

"Being named to the Best in Business list is a rare and special honor," said Eric Hagerman, Special Projects Editor, Inc. "These honorees demonstrate the foresight, caring, and dedication to prioritize positive impact — impact on their community, on their industry and the environment, and even on society as a whole."

Rather than relying on quantitative criteria tied to sales or funding, Inc.'s editors reviewed the companies' achievements over the past year and noted how they made a positive difference in the world. They then selected honorees in 70 different categories — from advertising to sustainability to retail, and more — and in age-based, revenue-based, size-based, and impact-based categories.
