i80 Group Receives Inc. 5000 2023 Fastest-Growing Company Honor for Second Consecutive Year

i80 Group recognized as one of the nation’s top 100 fastest-growing private companies and one of the 10 fastest growing firms in the U.S. financial services industry

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--i80 Group (“i80” or the “Firm”), a global investment firm that specializes in providing credit solutions to growth companies, today announced that it has been ranked by Inc. magazine as one of the nation’s top 100 fastest-growing private companies, and one of the 10 fastest growing firms within the U.S. financial services industry.

i80 Group serves as a strategic investment partner to technology companies in the earlier stages of their lifecycles as a result of the persistent lack of efficient capital available to these companies. The Firm’s solutions enable founders and investors to retain greater ownership and extend the runway to the next financing round, typically leading to substantially higher valuations. i80 has committed more than $2 billion in financing to over twenty-five companies since inception.

“It is an honor to once again be recognized by Inc. as one of the most entrepreneurial and successful companies in the U.S.,” said Marc Helwani, Founder and Chief Investment Officer at i80 Group. “This recognition further reinforces our team’s hard work and commitment to serving as a strategic capital and business partner to emerging and innovative technology companies in support of their long-term growth. We are excited about our future and looking forward to scaling our platform further.”

In 1982, Inc. introduced the Inc. 500 list of the fastest-growing privately held companies in the United States. Since then, this prestigious list of the nation's most successful private companies has become the hallmark of entrepreneurial success. In 2007, the Inc. 500 list expanded to the Inc. 5000, to capture a broader spectrum of success. The Inc. 5000 ranks companies by overall revenue growth over a three-year period.
