"Roamware is honored to be included on the prestigious 2010 Inc. 5000 for the second year," said Bobby Srinivasan, CEO of Roamware. "The company's dedication to providing users around the world with an unparalleled mobile roaming services experience is demonstrated by Roamware's 65 percent market share with customer installations in over 150 countries in the roaming solutions space and steady growth despite the economic downturn."

Founded in 2002, Roamware is headquartered in San Jose, CA and is led by CEO Bobby Srinivasan. The company has grown consistently each year and has operations across five continents, servicing 3 billion users and providing mobile operators with a range of new revenue streams. Roamware's products are deployed in more than 464 mobile operator networks across 154 countries. Additionally, Roamware's mobile finance solutions have been successfully deployed by major banks and operators around the world, and serve a wide range of needs across the domains of mobile commerce, banking, remittances and payments.

"The leaders of the companies on this year's Inc. 5000 have figured out how to grow their businesses during the longest recession since the Great Depression," said Inc. president Bob LaPointe. "The 2010 Inc. 5000 showcases a particularly hardy group of entrepreneurs."

Despite the fact that most of this year's measuring period of 2006-2009 took place during the latest recession, aggregate revenue among the companies on the list actually increased to $321.6 billion, up more than 50 percent from last year. The effects of the recession are seen, however, in the median three-year growth rate, which dropped to 96 percent from last year's 126 percent. This year's Inc. 5000 employ a record 1.4 million people, up from one million on last year's list. With unemployment remaining stubbornly high, policymakers and business leaders will do well to look to the Inc. 5000 companies for fresh ideas on achieving growth and creating jobs.

Methodology

The 2010 Inc. 500|5000 is ranked according to percentage revenue growth when comparing 2006 to 2009. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by June 30, 2006. Additionally, they had to be based in the United States, privately held, for profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2009.
