Atlanta knows its the tech city of the South. But it's nice to get recognition every once in a while.
The Inc. 5000 list, which is a compilation of the 5,000 fastest growing private companies in the country, released earlier this week features more than 200 Georgia companies. Can we get a whoop, whoop?
While we can't list all of them here, we did notice a trend in the selected companies for our tech industry this year: tons of software and IT companies.
That's right, Atlanta is starting to become a SaaS town, having higher numbers of SaaS and IT companies listed than fintech, healthtech and security.
