"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."
Avalon has been steadily growing since its inception in 2003 due to its commitment to client success, a focus on partnerships with industry-leading vendors, and a talented pool of senior consultants. This approach has created loyalty within its constituency helping Avalon overcome the recent economic challenges and allowing the company to be included among prominent national brands on this year's list such as 7-Eleven, Pandora and Radio Flyer.
Avalon's headquarters in Plano, TX reside within one of the hottest regions for fast growing companies. Texas is second only to California as states with the most companies represented on the list. With an office in Washington D.C., Avalon is also well positioned to take advantage of the changes taking place in the US economy evidenced by this year's rankings. The Government Services sector showed the biggest gains in terms of the number of companies on the list and was also the second-fastest growing sector in terms of median revenue growth. More than half of these companies are based in Maryland, Virginia and Washington, D.C.
"The emphasis Avalon puts on its partnerships, which we define as our relationships with our vendors, clients and employees, has fueled and supported our growth," remarked Tom Reidy, Avalon President & CEO. "Finding and nurturing key strategic relationships, such as our recently established partnership with MarkLogic and our existing partnerships with market-leaders like Autonomy and Open Text and SaaS-based innovators like Baynote and Birst, has allowed us to uniquely position ourselves to meet the evolving IT needs of Fortune 2000 organizations. We also believe our recently acquired GSA schedule will allow us to open doors to a new market by enabling us to better serve the growing public sector."
