The 2023 Fast 50: Here are the Columbus region's fastest-growing companies, including 15 new entries

Innovation is alive and well in Columbus judging from our latest Fast 50.

Columbus Business First's annual ranking of the region’s fastest-growing private companies includes 15 new entries, plus 25 companies with annual growth rates topping 100%.

Columbus Business First this week is revealing the 50 companies that posted the best growth from 2020 through 2022. They’re presented below in alphabetical order. Next month, we'll reveal the 1-50 rankings along with their growth rates and annual revenue.

That’ll happen first at our Fast 50 Awards Celebration, a happy hour on Thursday, Oct. 19, at the Huntington Field Club at Lower.com Field. Go here for more information and tickets.

To make the Fast 50, companies have to be for-profit and privately held, with at least $1 million in annual revenue in one of the past three years. Nominated companies share their financial information with GBQ Partners, which calculates the Fast 50 based on the highest growth rates.

This year marks the 28th anniversary of Business First's Fast 50 Awards.
