FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Paragon Micro Named to the 2026 Inc. 5000 List of America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies
Buffalo Grove, IL — August 10, 2026 — Paragon Micro today announced it has been named to the 2026 Inc. 5000, the annual ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The recognition reflects the company’s continued growth, expanding national presence, and commitment to delivering value to clients through strategic IT solutions and services.
Founded in 2008 by Chief Executive Officer Jeff Reimer, Paragon Micro was built to remove the barriers that often complicate technology decisions. Rather than leading with products, the company was founded to provide unbiased guidance, align technology to business goals, and help clients make informed decisions with confidence.
More than two decades later, that customer-first philosophy continues to define Paragon Micro’s approach. The company helps organizations solve complex business challenges through infrastructure, modern workplace, cloud, data and AI, and cybersecurity, combining deep technical expertise with long-term partnerships to deliver measurable business outcomes.
The Inc. 5000 recognition comes during a period of significant momentum for Paragon Micro. During this time, the company achieved 29.4% revenue growth while expanding its workforce by 64.7%, reflecting continued investment in both its business and its people. Alongside this growth, Paragon Micro has strengthened strategic technology partnerships, expanded its portfolio of professional and managed services, and continued to invest in top engineering, sales, and client success talent. These investments have enabled Paragon Micro to meet growing customer demand while maintaining the high-touch experience that has defined the company since its founding.
“This recognition reflects more than our growth, it reflects the way we’ve chosen to grow,” said Jeff Reimer, Chief Executive Officer of Paragon Micro. “Since our founding, we’ve been committed to putting our clients’ needs first, investing in exceptional people, and building lasting partnerships based on trust and accountability. Being named to the Inc. 5000 is an honor because it validates the values that have shaped Paragon Micro from the very beginning and continue to guide where we’re headed.”
The Inc. 5000 recognizes the most successful independent businesses driving innovation and economic growth across the United States. Companies earning a place on the list have demonstrated exceptional revenue growth while navigating evolving market conditions, making the ranking one of the most respected measures of entrepreneurial success.
“Our continued growth has created incredible opportunities to bring exceptional talent into the organization,” said Darin Mock, Vice President of Commercial Sales and Talent Acquisition. “What makes Paragon Micro different is that we invest in our people just as much as we invest in technology. That culture has enabled us to scale while preserving the collaborative, client-first mindset that defines who we are.”
Today, Paragon Micro continues to expand its national footprint through strategic hiring and an unwavering commitment to delivering meaningful business outcomes for its clients. As the company grows, it remains focused on building a team of collaborative professionals who thrive on solving complex challenges and making a lasting impact.
