FREDERICK, Md. (February 28, 2023) –Inc. Magazine today revealed that Edgewater Federal Solutions, Inc. is No. 81 on its fourth annual Inc. 5000 Regionals: Mid-Atlantic list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing Mid-Atlantic private companies, based in the District of Columbia, Delaware, Maryland, North Carolina, Virginia, and West Virginia. Born of the annual Inc. 5000 franchise, this regional list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the Mid-Atlantic economy’s most dynamic segment–its independent small businesses.  

“Edgewater is thrilled to rank 81st on Inc. Magazine’s Mid-Atlantic Region Fastest-Growing Companies list!” stated Dave Yockman, Edgewater’s Chief Executive Officer. “Jumping nearly 100 spots from last year, this advancement is a testament to our company’s growth and success in the federal contracting industry. We’ll continue to develop innovative and effective solutions for our clients as we continue to expand our customer base and team.” 

The companies on this list show a remarkable rate of growth across all industries in the Mid-Atlantic region. Between 2019 and 2021, these private companies had an average growth rate of 381 percent and, in 2021 alone, they added 14,439 jobs and $2.66 billion to the Mid-Atlantic region’s economy. Companies based in the Richmond, Virginia and the Washington, D.C. areas had the highest growth rates overall.    

Complete results of the Inc. 5000 Regionals: Mid-Atlantic, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, metro area, and other criteria, can be found at inc.com/mid-atlantic starting February 28, 2023. 

“This year’s Inc. 5000 Regional winners represent one of the most exceptional and exciting lists of America’s off-the-charts growth companies. They’re disrupters and job creators, and all delivered an outsize impact on the economy. Remember their names and follow their lead. These are the companies you’ll be hearing about for years to come,” said Scott Omelianuk, editor-in-chief of Inc. magazine.
