[Boston, Massachusetts] — March 20, 2026 — Valere, an award-winning AI value creation and delivery partner, has been named to The Boston Globe‘s 2026 ranking of New England’s 50 Fastest-Growing Companies. The list is produced annually in partnership with Statista and recognizes companies across the region based on independently verified compound annual revenue growth from 2021 through 2024. Valere ranked #10 on the list, achieving more than 400% growth during that period. The recognition reflects Valere’s continued momentum as a firm built around end-to-end AI transformation and custom software delivery, helping organizations build, learn, and scale in ways that produce measurable outcomes.
“This is really a reflection of the team we’ve built and the clients who’ve trusted us with meaningful work over the past several years,” said Alex Turgeon, President of Valere. “We stayed focused on delivering real outcomes for our clients through a period that tested a lot of organizations. Seeing that approach show up in a ranking like this is gratifying, and it keeps us honest about what’s actually working.”
How the Ranking Works | Earned Through Rigorous, Independently Verified Growth
The Globe-Statista ranking evaluates each company’s compound annual growth rate of revenues from 2021 through 2024. To qualify, companies must show a minimum of $100,000 in 2021 revenue and $1.5 million in 2024 revenue, with all figures certified by a member of senior leadership. The minimum CAGR threshold for inclusion this year was 8.4 percent. Valere’s growth during the measurement period was organic, with no acquisitions, driven by expanding client relationships, new service as software lines, and continued market expansion through end-to-end AI Transformation and delivery.
What the Growth Reflects | Built on a Foundation of Delivering Outcomes
Valere’s expansion over the past three years was driven largely by major investments in internal proprietary tools to help speed up product and AI solution development, as well as increased demand from mid-market, enterprise, and venture-backed companies working through the early stages of AI adoption and seeking a partner capable of moving from strategy to implementation. As an end-to-end AI transformation and custom software firm, Valere partners with organizations across the full arc of their AI journey, from initial assessment and strategy through to building production-ready solutions, equipping internal teams to operate and scale them, and continuously optimizing for business outcomes. The work tends to come from organizations that need execution rather than a strategy document, and that pattern became more common as AI moved from a planning conversation to an operational one. The firm’s ability to staff and deliver at that level, consistently, across a difficult hiring environment, is what the numbers actually represent.
“What the Valere team has accomplished over this period reflects both the quality of our people and commitment to our clients to produce successful outcomes,” said Guy Pistone, CEO of Valere. “It is rewarding to our teams as established and genuine value creation partners, one that stays accountable to outcomes long after the initial engagement.”
A Recognized Leader in AI Value Creation and Delivery
Valere’s recognition as one of New England’s fastest-growing companies adds to a growing list of industry acknowledgments that reflect the firm’s commitment to delivering AI-driven business transformation. As an award-winning partner, Valere has built its reputation on a delivery model centered on three core principles: building custom AI solutions tailored to each client’s operational reality, equipping organizations with the knowledge and capability to sustain and grow those solutions internally, and scaling what works into lasting competitive advantage. Clients across the mid-market and private equity landscape increasingly look to Valere not as a vendor, but as a long-term value creation partner embedded in their growth strategy.
