“Our second annual Inc. 5000 continues the most ambitious project in business journalism,” said Inc. 5000 Project Manager Jim Melloan. “The Inc. 5000 gives an unrivalled portrait of young, underreported companies doing fascinating things with cutting-edge business models, as well as older companies that are still showing impressive growth.”
HumanCentric focuses on the human side of product development and the end user. The company has seen 47 percent growth in revenue during the past three years, leading to the opening of a second office in Chicago in April 2008. HumanCentric’s experience in the areas of Industrial design, Graphic and Interaction design, Human Factors, and Design Research provides clients with the capability for meeting business objectives on all projects. Locally, HumanCentric clients include Geomagic, John Deere, Parata Systems and Sony Ericsson. Additional notable clients include Kodak, Dell and Motorola.
“It’s an honor to be recognized among the fastest growing companies in the country,” said Barry Beith, CEO and CTO of HumanCentric. “This is a testament to employee commitment to creating compelling and usable products for our clients.”
The Inc. 5000 list is based on the percentage growth in a company’s revenue over a four-year time period. Companies on the list will be honored at the Inc. 5000 Awards Ceremony on September 20, 2008 in Washington D.C. The list is the most comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy – America’s independent-minded entrepreneurs. Taken as a whole, these companies represent the backbone of the U.S. economy, the magazine said.
