CHICAGO, Aug. 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Inc. Magazine has ranked CXO Inc., the company behind CIOMeet, CISOMeet, CFOMeet, CTOMeet, GRCMeet, and ThrivePoint events, No. 84 on the 2026 Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in America.

The Magazine also recognized CXO Inc. as the No. 5 fastest-growing private company in Illinois and the No. 4 fastest-growing company in the Business and Corporate Services sector.

Founded on August 12, 2022, CXO Inc. has built a growing portfolio of C-suite communities and events that bring together CIOs, CISOs, CFOs, CTOs, governance, risk and compliance leaders, and other senior decision-makers.

“Making the top 100 on the Inc. 5000 list is a reflection of the trust our executive community, sponsors, employees, and partners have placed in us,” said Harshil Shah, CEO & Founder of CXO Inc. “We built CXO Inc. around a simple belief: Nothing beats a handshake. Even as technology transforms how business is conducted, meaningful relationships, candid conversations, and trusted communities remain at the heart of growth.”

CXO Inc.’s purpose is to build C-suite communities where executives can connect with their peers, engage in thought-leading discussions about the challenges and opportunities shaping their strategies, and gain insights that help them thrive in their business decisions.

Through CIOMeet, CISOMeet, CFOMeet, CTOMeet, and GRCMeet, the company creates opportunities for executives to collaborate through peer-led panel discussions, interactive roundtables, curated one-to-one meetings, private dinners, and networking experiences. ThrivePoint extends this model through customized, invitation-only programs built around each organization’s target audience, strategic priorities, and desired business outcomes.

“Our growth has never been about simply hosting more events,” Shah added. “It has been about creating environments where executives feel comfortable sharing their experiences, learning from one another, and forming relationships that continue well beyond the event. This recognition belongs to everyone who has helped us build these communities—our team, our executive members, our clients, and our partners.”

The Inc. 5000 recognizes independent, privately held companies based on their percentage revenue growth over a three-year period. The annual ranking offers a data-driven look at the most successful companies within the U.S. economy’s independent business sector.
