The prestigious list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the American economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent small businesses.

“LeaseQuery is ecstatic to be recognized on the Inc. 5000 list among so many admirable organizations,” said George Azih, CEO and founder of LeaseQuery. “Not only does this recognition represent our growth, but it shows the commitment our entire team has day in and day out to ensure both our business and our customers thrive.”

“Given the rapid growth LeaseQuery has achieved as a team, it is my responsibility to empower my colleagues in decisions they make for our company,” said Azih as he explained his leadership style to Inc. 5000.

Companies listed among the 2020 Inc. 5000 achieved an incredible three-year average growth of over 500 percent, and a median rate of 165 percent. The Inc. 5000’s aggregate revenue was $209 billion in 2019, accounting for more than one million jobs over the past three years.
