Best Version Media Recognized for Growth in 2026

In an impressive showcase of resilience and commitment to excellence, Best Version Media (BVM) has clinched the 107th position on the prestigious Inc. Regionals Midwest list for 2026. This recognition is part of Inc. magazine's annual assessment of the fastest-growing privately-held companies, celebrating those that have excelled in revenue growth, job creation, and adaptability even in difficult economic climates.

Spanning 12 states—including Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, and Wisconsin—this list stands as an influential benchmark for private companies in the region. The companies recognized this year demonstrated exceptional revenue growth and the ability to navigate challenges like inflation and supply chain disruptions.

BVM's growth trajectory, marked by a 69% median growth rate from 2022 to 2024, showcases its strong foundation within the local community marketing sector, paving the way for eight thousand jobs added and a notable $5.2 billion contribution to the regional economy. Kevin O’Brien, BVM’s CEO, expressed that this achievement reflects the company’s dedication to its core values. He stated, "Ranking among the fastest-growing companies in the Midwest is a powerful validation of the culture we've built at BVM. Our growth has never been about chasing a ranking; it's been about staying true to our values and supporting our people.”

The urgency to innovate and adapt has become a necessity rather than a competitive edge for companies on this list, as mentioned by Bonny Ghosh, Inc.’s editorial director. She noted, “The honorees on this year's Inc. Regionals list achieved exceptional growth at a time when the odds were against them. They didn't just persevere—they innovated, adapted, and thrived.”
