Not a bad year for Leah Brown. In June, Ernst & Young named her an entrepreneur of the year for the Carolinas. On Tuesday, Inc. Magazine ranked the Cary company she founded five years ago No. 92 on its list of the country's fastest-growing private companies. That is the highest spot for a Triangle company on this year's annual list.
A10 helps manage clinical trials for pharmaceutical companies and health clinics for government and other customers. It employs about 300.
The Inc. 500 list is based on percentage revenue growth over the past three years. A10's revenue increased to $8.3 million last year, up 2,714 percent, the magazine reported.
