Recognition Highlights Growing Demand for Accessible Digital Archives
Portland, ME, March 24, 2025 — HistoryIT is proud to announce its inclusion in The Boston Globe‘s list of New England’s Fastest-Growing Companies. This esteemed recognition, presented in collaboration with Statista, highlights HistoryIT’s exceptional performance and growth.
The New England’s Fastest-Growing Companies 2025 list awards organizations based on revenue growth, organic growth and independence between fiscal years 2020–2023. These companies represent potential investment opportunities and indicate sectors that are thriving despite economic adversity. Of the thousands of companies considered, HistoryIT ranked in the top 25.
This recognition underscores the growing demand for digital preservation services as organizations increasingly understand the importance of making their historical materials truly accessible in order to engage current and future generations. HistoryIT’s innovative approach to transforming physical archives into searchable, digital collections has resonated with institutions across various industries.
“Being named to The Boston Globe‘s list of fastest-growing companies recognizes not only the success of our business, but the critical importance of digital preservation in today’s world,” said Kristen Gwinn-Becker PhD, Founder and CEO of HistoryIT. “We’re seeing our partners utilize their historical materials to enhance their storytelling and add depth to their fundraising. They’re now able to share their legacy in ways never thought possible.”
HistoryIT’s expansion reflects the awareness among organizations of the value of properly preserving their historical materials digitally, ensuring they remain useful and relevant for years to come.
“This achievement would not have been possible without our dedicated team and trusting partners who share our vision of saving history through innovative digital solutions,” added Gwinn-Becker. “Together, we’re ensuring that invaluable historical materials aren’t just preserved but are discoverable and engaging for generations to come.”
