For Third Straight Year, Bullpen Strategy Group Named To Inc. 5000 List Of America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies

WASHINGTON, D.C. – For the third year in a row, Inc. Magazine has recognized Bullpen Strategy Group (BSG) on its annual Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in America. Founded nearly six years ago, BSG continues to experience dynamic growth with more than 60 professionals working across three offices in Washington, DC, Dallas, and London.

“We’re very proud to make the Inc. 5000 for the third straight year – it’s a testament to our team’s growth and the trust our clients have continued to place in us,” said BSG CEO Joe Pounder. “We’re excited for the next evolution of BSG, including building AI-powered products like BSG Rotunda that help clients make better, more informed decisions in a far more efficient manner than ever before.”

“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,” said 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. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons.
