NEW YORK Rapid sales growth of nearly 442 percent is the accomplishment that drove technology company Voxel dot Net to a position on Inc.’s third annual Inc. 5000, an exclusive ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies.Voxel dot Net debuted on Inc. Magazine’s 2009 list of America’s fastest-growing private companies in the top 15 percentile, to #623. Voxel also ranked No. 48 among the “Top 100 Inc. 500|5000 Companies by Metro Area – New York-Northern New Jersey-Long Island, NY-NJ-PA” and No. 82 among the Top 100 in IT Services.The selection by Inc. builds on two recent nods from Gartner Research, which selected Voxel as a key player in cloud computing and Web hosting in the August 2009 “Magic Quadrant for Web Hosting and Cloud Infrastructure Services (On Demand)” report and in April 2009, when it was featured as a “Cool Vendor in Cloud Computing.”Voxel joins other prominent brands such as Vizio, GoDaddy, Zipcar, and Honest Tea on this year’s list, which represent the most comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy -America’s independent-minded entrepreneurs.”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.”Voxel’s debut at a high ranking is significant given its competition – especially among the 371 Inc. 5000 companies based in New York and 658 companies in IT Services.
