The list is the most comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy — America’s independent-minded entrepreneurs. Companies such as Zappos, Intuit, GoDaddy, Under Armour, Jamba Juice, American Apparel, Oracle and hundreds of other powerhouses gained early exposure as members of the Inc. 500.

“If you want to find out which companies are going to change the world, look at the Inc. 500,” said Inc. Editor Jane Berentson. “These are the most innovative, dynamic, fast-growing companies in the nation — the ones coming up with solutions to some of our knottiest problems, creating systems that let us conduct business faster and easier, and manufacturing products we soon discover we can’t live without. The Inc. 500 list is Inc. magazine’s tribute to American business ingenuity and ambition.”

“For Sajan to be recognized as part of such a prestigious list, that of the Inc. 500, is most importantly a complement which is to be paid to the employees and innovators at Sajan that have made this achievement possible. It further represents the culture of our business. We do not aspire to simply operate within this rapidly growing market, but rather we intend to lead it,” comments Sajan CEO, Shannon Zimmerman.

The 2008 Inc. 500, as revealed in the September issue of Inc. magazine (on newsstands August 26 – September 30), reported aggregate revenue of $13.7 billion and median three-year growth of 1,046%.
