CARY, N.C., Aug. 17 (Korea Bizwire) – ÜberStrategist — a leading North American public relations and marketing agency serving the global video game, entertainment, and technology industry — is thrilled to announce that it has placed on the annual Inc. 5000 list for the second consecutive year, based on a steady increase in revenue and the agency’s continued expansion to offer a comprehensive suite of fully integrated promotional services for its clients.
The prestigious Inc. 5000 provides a data-driven ranking of America’s fastest-growing privately owned businesses. Facebook, Chobani, Under Armour, Microsoft, Patagonia, and many other household name brands gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.
This year, ÜberStrategist claimed the number 2244 spot overall (up from number 2661 last year). That makes the agency number 190 among U.S.-based Advertising and Marketing firms (up from number 232), 60th among North Carolina-based companies (up from number 76), and the 16th fastest-growing privately held company in the Greater Raleigh area (up from number 22).
“We are incredibly proud of this achievement and honored to be again recognized alongside so many other great companies by Inc. Magazine,” said ÜberStrategist Founder and President Mario R. Kroll. “Making the Inc. 5000 for the first time last year was wonderful. Repeating a second year, despite significant challenges, is even more meaningful. It validates our ability to truly listen to and fully partner with the companies that hire us. It also showcases our team’s grit, creativity, and commitment to achieving exceptional results on behalf of our clients.”
ÜberStrategist rejoins the ranks during a pivotal moment in the company’s history: another year of remarkable expansion, strategic global hires that strengthened the company’s already impressive public relations, community management, and content marketing verticals, its growing tabletop gaming practice, and the company’s sales and operations capabilities. This year, ÜberStrategist also celebrates opening its first physical office, the company’s headquarters in Cary, North Carolina, supporting its roster of global clients that include 10 Chambers, Atari, Arcane Wonders, Blowfish Studios, Bungie, Clarity Voice, Cliff Bleszinski, DreadXP, Free League Publishing, Gameforge, Glass Cannon Unplugged, Lilith Games, Modiphius, Nightdive Studios, Owlcat Games, PQube, Pro Helvetia, Vendor Centric, Victura, and many others.
Building on last year’s events management investment, this year also represents the company’s first appearance as an exhibitor and event organizer at gamescom, Europe’s largest video game trade show, held in Cologne, Germany, later this month. In partnership with the IGDA (International Game Developers Association), ÜberStrategist’s fully managed turnkey B2B and B2C pavilions will empower fifteen global companies to attend, showcase their games or services, and hold meaningful meetings with clients, partners, and investors.
The Inc. 5000 class of 2023 represents companies that have driven rapid revenue growth while navigating inflationary pressure, the rising costs of capital, and seemingly intractable hiring challenges. Among this year’s top 500 companies, the average median three-year revenue growth rate was an astonishing 2,238 percent. This year’s Inc. 5000 companies have added 1,187,266 jobs to the economy over the past three years.
“Running a business has only gotten harder since the end of the pandemic,” says Inc. editor-in-chief Scott Omelianuk. “To make the Inc. 5000 — with the fast growth that requires — is truly an accomplishment. Inc. is thrilled to honor the companies that are building our future.”
For complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, location, and other criteria, go to www.inc.com/inc5000. The top 500 companies are featured in the September issue of Inc. magazine, available on newsstands beginning Tuesday, August 23.

Methodology
Companies on the 2023 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2019 to 2022. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2019. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2022. (Since then, some on the list may have gone public or been acquired.) The minimum revenue required for 2019 is $100,000; the minimum for 2022 is $2 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons. Growth rates used to determine company rankings were calculated to four decimal places.
