The annual list recognizes the top 100 companies that possess high growth, a strong management team and investors, market size and notable customers and partners.

“We are honored to be named to Forbes’ Most Promising Companies list,” said Nick Mehta, CEO of Gainsight. “This recognition is a great validation of Gainsight’s dedicated team, our leading Customer Success Management solution and our rapidly expanding customer and partner base, all of which contribute to the success of the company.

Forbes Methodology

Forbes’ third annual list of America’s Most Promising Companies recognizes 100 privately-held, high-growth companies. Companies that made the cut boast compelling business models, strong management teams, as well as notable customers and investors.

Forbes strove for a holistic gauge of young, privately-held businesses, attempting to pin down their trajectories by taking a range of variables into account. Over the course of four months Forbes reviewed hundreds of applications. The final assessment is based on growth (both in sales and hiring), quality of management teams and investors, margins, market size and key partnerships. After verifying sales numbers, speaking with each company and debating their merits and blemishes, Forbes produces a final ranking.
