Los Angeles Fast 50

Overview

The Los Angeles Fast 50 (often branded as ‘Fastest Growing Private Companies’ or similar) is produced by the Los Angeles Business Journal to recognize the 50 fastest‑growing private companies in the Greater Los Angeles area, based on percentage revenue growth over a multi‑year period. It is an editorial, data‑driven ranking that highlights high‑growth firms across industries and is used by companies as a credibility signal for investors, customers, and talent. Because no 2026 cycle information has been released online yet, all current cycle details below are necessarily estimated from typical patterns of similar Business Journal Fast 50 programs.
