Between 2018 and 2021 AEBetancourt (AEB) achieved three-hundred percent revenue growth. A level that earned us a ranking of #2011 among 5,000 of America’s fastest-growing private companies.

The annual Inc. 5000 list is the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in the country. The list represents a one-of-a-kind look at the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent businesses. And no easy feat considering the conditions under which organizations had to weather the past three years. The companies on the 2022 Inc. 5000 have not only been successful, but have also demonstrated resilience amid supply chain woes, labor shortages, and the ongoing impact of COVID-19.

AEB ranked 2011th overall and 81st in the Human Resources Companies category. A little closer to home, we ranked 28th fastest growing private company in Michigan and ranked 8th in the Grand Rapids area.

Our team’s grit and drive have placed us on a trajectory of continued hyper-growth and success. It’s an honor to be recognized on the Inc. 5000 list for 2022.”

"Along with the continued repeat business our clients entrust to us every year, this award validates our innovative model of talent acquisition services,” Betancourt added. Recruiting-as-a-Service is our unique process that has helped hundreds of organizations across the country find their perfect-fit hires.”

It draws more people downtown, creating foot traffic and more business for our other members. We’re excited to see what they will do next.”

“The accomplishment of building one of the fastest-growing companies in the U.S., in light of recent economic roadblocks, cannot be overstated,” says Scott Omelianuk, editor-in-chief of Inc. “Inc. is thrilled to honor the companies that have established themselves through innovation, hard work, and rising to the challenges of today.”
