PORTLAND, Ore.
Aug. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- Inc. recently unveiled Vigilan as No. 2168 on its annual ranking of the 5,000 fastest-growing private companies in the United States. Vigilan has demonstrated a 146% growth rate over the past three years.
The 2009 Inc. 5000 represents the most comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy-America's independent-minded entrepreneurs. Vigilan joins the ranks of companies like Vizio, GoDaddy and Zipcar who are among the prominent brands featured on this year's list.
"Savvy trend spotters and those who invest in private companies know that the Inc. 5000 is the best place to find out about young companies that are achieving success through a wide variety of unprecedented business models, as well as older private companies that are still expanding at an impressive rate," said Inc. 5000 project manager Jim Melloan. "That's why our list is so eagerly anticipated every year."
"This recognition is a direct result of the dedication and passion of our employees. Many software companies can claim financial achievement, but our employees ensure our software is truly working for each and every senior living community," said Doug Fullaway, president and COO of Vigilan. "Our customers take pride in knowing they are providing the best care for their residents. Its been a rewarding experience to see their commitment go above and beyond just implementing software to really ensuring the system is working for them."
