This amazing accolade reflects the hard work and dedication of the team and marks a proud moment for both the company and its community!
A Celebration of Growth
This incredible ranking has its roots in the esteemed Inc. 5000 list, which highlights the most successful private companies in the United States. The Vet100 list is prepared in partnership with Inc. Business Media and the D’Aniello Institute for Veterans and Military Families (IVMF) at Syracuse University. It shines a light on the contributions of our veterans in the entrepreneurial landscape, showing how military service translates to impressive business acumen.
But that’s not all! Current Edge Solutions also made waves by landing at No. 1108 on the 2024 Inc. 5000 list, boasting a jaw-dropping 462% in revenue growth over the past three years. Within Savannah, they’re topping the charts as No. 1, and in the whole state of Georgia, they rank No. 50. What a fantastic accomplishment!
Meet the Man Behind the Mission
Mike Joyner, the president of Current Edge Solutions, expressed his gratitude by saying, “As a proud Veteran, it is an absolute honor to be recognized on this prestigious list.” His military background has instilled values that carry over into the company’s mission and commitment to clients and the surrounding community. It’s clear that Joyner’s passion runs deep, and it’s allowing his company to thrive.
Recognizing the Contribution of Veteran Entrepreneurs
The Vet100 Dinner & Awards Ceremony is set to take place during the Veteran EDGE Conference in Dallas, TX, where honorees will be recognized for their achievements. Dr. Mike Haynie, the Vice Chancellor at Syracuse University and the founder and Executive Director of IVMF, highlighted the essential role veteran entrepreneurs play. “They apply leadership and management skills learned from their military service to fuel their business growth and benefit local communities,” he said, emphasizing just how significant these contributions are to the economy.
Why This Matters
With a growing community of business owners who are veterans, the potential for local and national economic impact is monumental. Not only does it provide jobs, but these businesses also create a ripple effect, enhancing community engagement and support.
