About Inc. Magazine

Inc., the only major business magazine edited exclusively for CEOs of fast-growing private companies, delivers real solutions for today's innovative company builders.
 
It provides hands-on resources and market-tested strategies for managing people, finances, sales, marketing and technology. And Inc. looks beyond work to address the entrepreneurial lifestyle. Inc. inspires and informs, with cutting-edge coverage that reflects our readers' energy, brashness and imagination.
 
For over 25 years, Inc. has been the handbook of the American entrepreneur, a trusted sourcebook for how to start and grow their companies. Over the years, Inc. has cataloged the success of many of these companies through their annual Inc. 500 - a list of the 500 fastest-growing private businesses in the U.S. Unlike the Fortune 500 and other lists, companies must apply to be considered for the Inc. 500, demonstrating the unique relationship Inc. has with these companies, which have included such household names as Microsoft, Oracle, Qualcomm, The Sharper Image, Morningstar, Timberland, Patagonia, and Domino's Pizza.
