RISE climbed more than 600 spots from last year, reflecting the company's continued growth and expanding support for entrepreneurs across the Midwest.

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Inc., the leading media brand and playbook for the entrepreneurs and business leaders shaping our future, today announced that RISE Commercial District is No. 854 on the annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The list provides a data-driven snapshot of the most successful companies within the economy's most dynamic segment—its independent, entrepreneurial businesses. Past honorees include companies such as Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Under Armour, Timberland, Oracle, and Patagonia.

"RISE was built on the belief that growing businesses deserve more than a lease. They deserve flexible business spaces, fewer barriers and a team that is invested in helping them succeed," said Jim Sapp, founder and CEO of RISE Commercial District. "Moving from No. 1,455 to No. 854 reflects the strength of that mission and the work our team does every day. I'm incredibly proud of what we are building together, and even more excited about the businesses and communities we will continue to support as RISE grows."

This year's Inc. 5000 honorees have demonstrated exceptional growth while navigating economic uncertainty, inflationary pressure, and a fluctuating labor market. Among the top 500 companies on the list, the median three-year revenue growth rate reached 1,552 percent, and those companies have collectively added more than 48,678 jobs to the U.S. economy over the past three years.

"Making the Inc. 5000 is always a remarkable achievement, but earning a spot this year speaks volumes about a company's tenacity and clarity of vision," says Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief of Inc. "These businesses have thrived amid rising costs, shifting global dynamics, and constant change. They didn't just weather the storm—they grew through it, and their stories are a powerful reminder that the entrepreneurial spirit is the engine of the U.S. economy."

Founded in Indianapolis, RISE Commercial District provides flexible warehouse, office and flex space designed specifically for small and growing businesses. RISE has expanded to 17 locations across five states, creating supportive business environments where entrepreneurs can operate, connect and grow with fewer barriers. With flexible lease options, all-inclusive amenities and on-site support, RISE gives business owners more than space. It gives them a foundation to build boldly. The company's rise from No. 1,455 to No. 854 on the Inc. 5000 reflects its continued expansion and the growing demand for business spaces built around the needs of today's businesses.
