DSC Recognized for 414% Three-Year Revenue Growth, Ranking Among the Nation’s Most Successful Independent Businesses
ATLANTA, GA – August 11, 2026 – Data Science Connect (DSC) today announced that it has been ranked No. 833 on the 2026 Inc. 5000 list, the annual ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America.
With 414% revenue growth over three years, DSC ranked among the top 20% of companies on this year’s list. The Inc. 5000 recognizes independent businesses that have achieved exceptional growth while driving innovation, creating jobs, and contributing to the U.S. economy. Past honorees include Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Oracle, and Patagonia.
“Being named to the Inc. 5000 — and ranking in the top 20% of companies on the list — is an incredible milestone, but what excites us most is what the growth represents,” said Amelia Mink, CEO and Co-Founder of Data Science Connect. “The world is navigating a period of extraordinary change driven by data and AI, and our mission has always been to bring together the people, ideas, and solutions that can help leaders navigate what comes next. This recognition is a testament to our team, our clients, our community, and the trust they’ve placed in us along the way.”
This year’s Inc. 5000 recognizes a new class of companies redefining what growth looks like across industries including AI, advanced manufacturing, healthcare, consumer products, and professional services. Among the 5,000 companies on the list, the median three-year revenue growth rate was 130%, and honorees collectively added more than 627,000 jobs to the U.S. economy over the past three years.
“Every company on the Inc. 5000 has a story of perseverance, smart decision making, and a refusal to sit still,” said Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief of Inc. “Their growth reflects more than strong financial performance — it reflects creativity, resilience, and the customer focus required to build companies that make a lasting impact. We congratulate all honorees on this significant achievement.”
For Data Science Connect, the recognition is especially meaningful because the company has remained profitable and independently financed since its inception. Founded when data science was still an emerging field, DSC was built on the conviction that data and AI would fundamentally reshape business — and that the leaders driving that transformation needed a community to connect, learn, and build together.
Today, as AI accelerates that transformation across nearly every industry, DSC continues to bring together senior data and AI leaders, practitioners, and technology providers through its events, community, and growing portfolio of offerings.
“We’ve built Data Science Connect independently, profitably, and with a relentless focus on serving our community,” said Brian Mink, President and Co-Founder of Data Science Connect. “This recognition is an exciting milestone, but we believe the opportunity ahead of us is even greater.”
