PALO ALTO, Aug. 17, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Inc. magazine today revealed that Gong, the revenue intelligence platform leveraging artificial intelligence to transform revenue and customer-facing teams, is No. 99 on its annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the nation's fastest-growing private companies. Intuit, Zappos, Under Armour, Microsoft, Patagonia, and many other well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.

"Making the Inc. 5000 list – and ranking in the top two percent of companies surveyed this year – is a great accomplishment," said Amit Bendov, CEO of Gong. "Gong's revenue growth is concrete evidence of the high demand for revenue intelligence in general and the superior solution Gong provides. More than 2,000 customers worldwide rely on Gong's platform because it delivers measurable impact across the entire organization."

Not only have the companies on the 2021 Inc. 5000 been very competitive within their markets, but this year's list also proved especially resilient and flexible given 2020's unprecedented challenges. Among the 5,000, the average median three-year growth rate soared to 543 percent, and median revenue reached $11.1 million. Together, those companies added more than 610,000 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., which will be available on newsstands on August 20.

"The 2021 Inc. 5000 list feels like one of the most important rosters of companies ever compiled," says Scott Omelianuk, editor-in-chief of Inc. "Building one of the fastest-growing companies in America in any year is a remarkable achievement. Building one in the crisis we've lived through is just plain amazing. This kind of accomplishment comes with hard work, smart pivots, great leadership, and the help of a whole lot of people."

Today's news comes just a week after Gong was named to the Forbes Cloud 100 list, the definitive ranking of the world's top 100 private cloud companies. This is the second straight year Gong was named to the Cloud 100 list.
