Esports’ meteoric rise over the last five years has been astounding. Leading the charge is Skillz, a mobile esports platform with over 12 million active gamers. Inc. Magazine recently released its annual Inc. 5000 list, ranking the top privately held U.S. companies by overall revenue growth over a three-year period, and Skillz was at the top.
That makes Andrew Paradise CEO and founder of the fastest-growing company within the fastest-growing industry. Skillz is the first esports organization to check in at No. 1.
“With over six million private companies in America, it’s a tremendous achievement to rank number one,” Paradise said in a statement.
