August 5, 2025   

With three-year revenue growth of 435%, this marks Compass Datacenter’s NinthTime on the List NEW YORK, August 12, 2025 – Inc.today announced that Compass Datacenters is No. 982 on the annual Inc. 5000 ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The list provides a data-driven snapshot of the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent, entrepreneurial businesses. Past honorees include companies such as Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Under Armour, Timberland, Oracle, and Patagonia. “Compass’ growth is directly attributable to a culture that encourages us to be bold, curious and unafraid to fail as we pursue new opportunities to do things differently…and better,” according to CEO Chris Crosby. “We’re constantly pioneering and improving our designs and standard kit-of-parts to responsibly serve the growing demand for data in an AI-driven world creating a lot of advantages for our customers. We have an incredibly talented team of really smart people and partners who make this growth possible.” Compass designs and delivers data centers for the world’s largest hyperscalers and cloud providers. It is unique in the industry for its focus on large-scale, single-tenant campus, modular designs and manufacturing-style approach to construction, which yield faster delivery times and a lower total cost of ownership. This distinctive way of working made Compass well-positioned to respond to skyrocketing demand for data center capacity in recent years. This year’s Inc. 5000 honorees have demonstrated exceptional growth while navigating economic uncertainty, inflationary pressure, and a fluctuating labor market. Among the top 500 companies on the list, the median three-year revenue growth rate reached 1,552 percent, and those companies have collectively added more than 48,678 jobs to the U.S. economy over the past three years. For the full list, company profiles, and a searchable database by industry and location, visit: www.inc.com/inc5000. “Making the Inc. 5000 is always a remarkable achievement, but earning a spot this year speaks volumes about a company’s tenacity and clarity of vision,” says Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief of Inc. “These businesses have thrived amid rising costs, shifting global dynamics, and constant change. They didn’t just weather the storm—they grew through it, and their stories are a powerful reminder that the entrepreneurial spirit is the engine of the U.S. economy.” Methodology Companies on the 2025 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2021 to 2024. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2021. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2024. (Since then, some on the list may have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2021 is $100,000; the minimum for 2024 is $2 million.
