Arcova Named to Inc. 5000 List of Fastest-Growing Companies for the Second-Year Running

Recognition caps a year of expanded capabilities, industry recognition, talent investment, and sustained growth for the global cybersecurity and AI consulting firm.

News Summary:

• Arcova, a global cybersecurity and AI consulting firm with offices across the globe, headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina, has been named to the Inc. 5000 list of America's fastest-growing private companies for the second consecutive year, reflecting continued growth, expanded capabilities, and investments in the next generation of industry talent.

CHARLOTTE, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Arcova, formerly the MorganFranklin Cyber team, a leading U.S.-based cybersecurity and AI consulting firm, today announced it has been named to the annual 2026 Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America. This marks the second consecutive year Arcova has been recognized on the list, underscoring the firm's continued growth, market leadership, and commitment to delivering practitioner-led solutions that help organizations navigate cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, and digital infrastructure challenges.

This year’s Inc. 5000 recognizes a new class of companies redefining what growth looks like. From AI and advanced manufacturing to healthcare, consumer products, and professional services, these businesses are expanding their impact, creating jobs and proving that entrepreneurial ambition continues to fuel the U.S. economy. Among the 5,000 companies on the list, the median three-year revenue growth rate was 130%, and those companies have collectively added more than 627,208 jobs to the U.S. economy over the past three years.

"This recognition reflects the work our team puts in every day, not for an award but for our clients," said Keith Hollender, CEO and Co-Founder of Arcova. "We built this company on practitioner-led execution, and being named to the Inc. 5000 for a second consecutive year confirms our approach is working. Growth like this comes from focus, discipline, and a team willing to solve hard problems for the enterprises we serve."

This achievement follows a transformative year for Arcova. In addition to its continued expansion as a global cybersecurity and AI consulting firm, the company launched an end-to-end data center development offering that brings engineering, cybersecurity, regulatory compliance, and grid-planning expertise under a single accountable team.

Arcova's momentum has also been recognized across the cybersecurity industry. Earlier this year, the firm received the 2026 Fortress Cybersecurity Award for Organizational Excellence.

Arcova's growth is matched by continued investment in its people. In 2026, the firm welcomed its largest intern class to date, providing hands-on experience across cybersecurity, AI, consulting operations, and corporate functions. Combined with mentorship, advanced training opportunities, and strategic academic partnerships, including its relationship with Seton Hall University, these initiatives reflect Arcova's commitment to developing world-class practitioners and cultivating the next generation of cybersecurity and AI leaders.

"Sustained growth reflects the people behind it and the trust our clients place in us," said Jonah Dimeo, Senior Partner and Co-Founder of Arcova. "Our growth comes from helping clients solve complex cybersecurity, AI, and infrastructure challenges with practitioners who understand both the technical and business sides of transformation. We're also investing in the next generation of cybersecurity leaders through our internship program, professional development, and academic partnerships. Being recognized by Inc. for a second consecutive year validates our strategy and our commitment to building a world-class firm."

“Every company on the Inc. 5000 has a story of perseverance, smart decision making, and a refusal to sit still,” says Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief of Inc. “Their growth reflects more than strong financial performance–it reflects creativity, resilience, and the customer focus required to build companies that make a lasting impact. We congratulate all honorees on this significant achievement.”
