Inc. Magazine has notified Global Communication Networks that the firm ranks number 1,347 on Inc.'s fifth annual Inc. 500|5000. In addition, GCN was ranked as the 45th fastest growing telecommunications company in the nation, as well as one of the fastest growing companies in Florida. (You can read the whole press release here.) I just wanted to take a moment to give props to a fellow agent (and TCA member) and fellow Floridian. Congrats! Chris Palermo!!

GCN is one of the few agencies that handle project management for data centers and collocation. [One other one is my fellow TCA Board member COLOTRAQ.]

Another Florida telecom company on the list (at # 195) is Star2Star - a TCA vendor member - that sells a hybrid Hosted/on-premise IP-PBX systems for SMB. They are doing almost $11M in revenue and just released a new box.
