Vālenz® Health Ranks No. 3646 Among America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies
PHOENIX, Ariz. (Aug. 15, 2023) — Inc. revealed today that Vālenz® Health ranked again as one of the fastest-growing private companies in America: No. 3646 on the 2023 Inc. 5000, and No. 215 among health services companies. The prestigious ranking provides a data-driven look at the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment. Facebook, Chobani, Under Armour, Microsoft, Patagonia and many other brands first gained national exposure as Inc. 5000 honorees before becoming household names over the years.
“It’s truly an honor to be recognized again as one of America’s fastest-growing private companies, and it reinforces the culture that drives our core promise to deliver smarter, better, faster healthcare,” said Rob Gelb, Chief Executive Officer of Valenz. “By reimagining a transparent, data-rich approach to simplifying the complexity of self-insurance for employers, we deliver the measurable care management, network innovations and early engagement for improved health outcomes and significant savings, facilitating growth for our company and for our customers.”
Valenz joined the Inc. 5000 list for the first time in 2020 and has continued to experience consistent growth since then. The Inc. 5000 class of 2023 represents companies that have driven rapid revenue growth while navigating inflationary pressure, the rising costs of capital, and seemingly intractable hiring challenges. Among this year’s top 500 companies, the average median three-year revenue growth rate ticked up to an astonishing 2,238 percent. In all, this year’s Inc. 5000 companies have added 1,187,266 jobs to the economy over the past three years.
The top 500 companies are featured in the September issue of Inc. magazine, available on newsstands beginning Tuesday, Aug. 23.
“Running a business has only gotten harder since the end of the pandemic,” said Inc. editor-in-chief Scott Omelianuk. “To make the Inc. 5000 – with the fast growth that it requires – is truly an accomplishment. Inc. is thrilled to honor the companies that are building our future.”

About the Inc. 5000 Methodology
Companies on the 2023 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2019 to 2022. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2019. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2022. (Since then, some on the list may have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2019 is $100,000; the minimum for 2022 is $2 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons. Growth rates used to determine company rankings were calculated to four decimal places.
