[Boston, Massachusetts] – April 2026 – Valere, an award-winning AI value creation and delivery partner providing end-to-end AI transformation and custom software solutions through building, learning, and scaling, has been named to the Financial Times’ 2026 ranking of The Americas’ Fastest-Growing Companies. The list is produced annually in partnership with Statista and recognizes 300 companies across the Americas based on independently verified compound annual revenue growth from 2021 through 2024. The recognition places Valere among an elite group of high-growth businesses spanning sectors from IT and fintech to healthcare and logistics, and reflects the firm’s continued momentum as organizations across the region accelerate their AI transformation journeys.
“This recognition is a reflection of our clients’ trust and the quality of work our team has delivered over the past several years,” said Alex Turgeon, President of Valere. “We stayed focused on delivering real outcomes, and seeing that show up in a ranking like this is gratifying. It keeps us honest about what’s actually working.”
How the Ranking Works | Earned Through Rigorous, Independently Verified Growth
The FT-Statista ranking evaluates each company’s compound annual growth rate of revenues from 2021 through 2024. To qualify, companies must demonstrate a minimum of $100,000 in 2021 revenue and $1.5 million in 2024 revenue, with all figures certified by a senior executive including the chief executive, chief financial officer, or a member of the executive committee. The minimum CAGR threshold for inclusion this year was 5.1 percent. Valere’s growth during the measurement period was entirely organic, driven by expanding client relationships, new service-as-software lines, and continued market expansion, with no acquisitions.
What the Growth Reflects | Built on a Foundation of Building, Learning, and Scaling
Valere’s expansion over the past three years was driven by major investments in proprietary internal tooling to accelerate AI solution development, combined with surging demand from mid-market, enterprise, and venture-backed organizations navigating the critical early and mid-stages of AI adoption. These clients needed a partner capable of moving from strategy to production, building custom solutions tailored to their operational reality, learning what works through close collaboration, and scaling outcomes into durable competitive advantage. As an award-winning AI value creation and delivery partner, Valere engages across the full arc of a client’s AI transformation: from initial assessment through to building production-ready solutions, equipping internal teams with the knowledge to sustain and grow them, and continuously scaling what delivers measurable business results. The firm’s ability to execute consistently at that level, across a challenging hiring environment, is what the numbers ultimately reflect.
“Being recognized across the Americas speaks to the quality of our people and our commitment to producing real outcomes for clients,” said Guy Pistone, CEO of Valere. “We build, we learn, and we scale. That is the model, and it works because our team stays accountable long after the initial engagement.”
A Recognized Leader in AI Value Creation and Delivery
Valere’s inclusion in the Financial Times’ Americas’ Fastest-Growing Companies 2026 adds to a growing list of industry acknowledgments that reflect the firm’s position as an award-winning AI value creation and delivery partner. Earlier this year, Valere was also named to The Boston Globe’s ranking of New England’s 50 Fastest-Growing Companies for 2026. Anchored by a proven model of building, learning, and scaling, Valere delivers end-to-end AI transformation and custom software solutions that produce real, measurable outcomes. Clients across the mid-market and private equity landscape increasingly look to Valere as a long-term value creation partner embedded in their growth strategy, one that builds what they need, learns what works, and scales it into lasting advantage.
