"To be on the Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private companies for the 3rd year in a row is a huge accomplishment and confirms that focusing on long term relationships with our clients enables us to consistently grow and allows us continue to improve our services," Kevin Rubin and Steve Melchiorre, managing partners of Converged Communications, LLC, said. "We're honored to be a part of such an exclusive list of well-known and successful companies such as GoPro, Bridger, Lending Club and Tough Mudder and we look forward to continuing our growth."

"What surprises me, even though I know it's coming, is the sheer variety of the paths our entrepreneurs take to success, thematically reflecting how our economy has evolved," says Inc. President and Editor-In-Chief Eric Schurenberg. "This year there are far more social media and far fewer computer hardware businesses than there were, say, six years ago. But what doesn't change is the fearsome creativity unleashed by American entrepreneurship."
The annual Inc. 5000 event honoring all the companies on the list will be held from October 15 through 17, 2014 in Phoenix. Speakers include some of the greatest entrepreneurs of this and past generations, such as Michael Dell, Martha Stewart, host of the CNBC show "The Profit" Marcus Lemonis, Container Store Founder and CEO Kip Tindell, and Chobani Founder and CEO Hamdi Ulukaya.
