Multilingual Connections Named to Inc. 5000 List of Fastest Growing Companies
Inc. magazine revealed that Multilingual Connections, a global language solutions company based in the Chicago area, has earned its place on the annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. With a strong three-year sales growth of 59%, this marks Multilingual Connections’ first year on the Inc. 5000. The list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the American economy’s most dynamic segment – its independent small businesses. Microsoft, Dell, Domino’s Pizza, Pandora, Timberland, LinkedIn, Yelp, Zillow, and many other well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.
“We’re excited and honored to have been named to the Inc. 5000 list,” said Multilingual Connections’ Founder & CEO, Dr. Jill Kushner Bishop. “We’ve got a talented and passionate global team that fully embraces our core values of relationships, trust, flexibility, growth and driving change. We love what we do, and we love partnering with clients to help them achieve their business goals. This honor validates our hard work, and I couldn’t be more proud of our team.”
Not only have the companies on the 2019 Inc. 5000 been very competitive within their markets, but the list as a whole shows staggering growth compared with prior lists. “The companies on this year’s Inc. 5000 have followed so many different paths to success,” noted Inc. editor in chief James Ledbetter. “There’s no single course you can follow or investment you can take that will guarantee this kind of spectacular growth. But what they have in common is persistence and seizing opportunities.”
