Pittsburgh, PA, August 14, 2026 —
Fourteen private companies in the Pittsburgh area have been named to the 2026 Inc. 5000 list, an annual ranking that highlights the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. This year’s recognition marks a decline from the 21 regional companies that achieved a spot on the 2025 list.
The Inc. 5000 list evaluates companies based on their percentage revenue growth over a three-year period. This metric provides a measure of a company’s expansion and market performance.
Among the fourteen Pittsburgh-area companies, HMA Mortgage, a lender based in Robinson, achieved the highest ranking for the region. The company secured the No. 515 position on the national list, reporting a significant revenue growth of 673% during the assessed period.
Additionally, two technology firms located in the North Side, Iralogix and Gather AI, were also recognized among the top 1,000 fastest-growing companies nationally. Specific details regarding their rankings within the top 1,000 were not provided.
The Inc. 5000 list serves as a benchmark for entrepreneurial success, identifying businesses that have demonstrated substantial growth and resilience in the competitive U.S. market. The decrease in the number of Pittsburgh-area companies on the 2026 list compared to 2025 suggests a shifting landscape for regional business growth.
