We are proud to share an exciting milestone for Exit Factor: Inc. has recognized both our brand and our founder, Jessica Fialkovich, with two notable honors in 2026.
According to the featured press release, Exit Factor was ranked No. 9 on Inc.’s 2026 Regionals: Southeast list, which highlights some of the fastest-growing privately held companies in the region. In addition, Jessica was named to Inc.’s 2026 Female Founders 500, an annual list recognizing women leaders who are making a meaningful impact through innovation, resilience, and execution.
These honors reflect both our continued growth and the strength of our mission. At Exit Factor, we work with business owners to improve performance, increase company value, and prepare for future transitions with greater confidence and clarity.
Our focus on long-term value creation has helped shape the way we support entrepreneurs across industries. We believe business owners deserve practical strategies that not only strengthen their companies today, but also create more opportunities for the future.
Jessica addressed the recognition in the press release, saying, “Being recognized on both lists is incredibly meaningful,” highlighting the connection between building a purpose-driven company and helping other entrepreneurs do the same.
This recognition is especially meaningful because it reflects the work we are doing on two levels. As a company, we are honored to be recognized for our growth. As a brand founded to help business owners create stronger, more valuable companies, we are equally proud to see Jessica recognized for the leadership and vision behind that mission.
It also adds to a growing list of honors for Exit Factor, including previous recognition from Inc. and Entrepreneur. We are grateful for the momentum we have built and remain committed to helping more business owners increase value, strengthen operations, and build companies that are prepared for whatever comes next.
