Company Recognized for 1,061% Three-Year Revenue Growth, Earning a Place Among the Nation’s Most Successful Independent Businesses
Melbourne, Fla. (August 11, 2026) – Kalogon, the market leader in smart seating solutions, today announced it has been ranked No. 317 on the 2026 Inc. 5000 list, the annual list of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The list is the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s most successful independent and entrepreneurial businesses, recognizing companies that have achieved remarkable growth while driving innovation, creating jobs, and shaping the future of the economy. Past honorees include companies such as Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Oracle, and Patagonia.
"This past year we opened a new production facility here in Melbourne with $50 million in annual capacity, expanded our sales and marketing team to grow with our distributor partners and got new products into the hands of more people who need them,” said Tim Balz, founder and CEO, Kalogon. “Being named to the Inc. 5000 is proof that solving a real problem is what actually moves a company forward."
Kalogon is a Melbourne, Florida-based company building inventive seating technology that reduces the stresses of sitting. Founded in 2019 by a team of former SpaceX engineers, Kalogon designs, prototypes and manufactures its products in-house, using real-time sensors and adaptive surfaces to restore circulation, protect skin integrity and reduce fatigue. The company serves wheelchair users through its line of seating solutions – from Medicare-coded smart pressure management cushions to 3D-printed cushions and backrests for postural support – and applies the same technology in aviation, where it's tested custom seating for U.S. Air Force aircrew. Kalogon works with major mobility distributors, clinical partners and the federal government to get its technology into the hands of the people who need it.
This year’s Inc. 5000 recognizes a new class of companies redefining what growth looks like. From AI and advanced manufacturing to healthcare, consumer products, and professional services, these businesses are expanding their impact, creating jobs and proving that entrepreneurial ambition continues to fuel the U.S. economy. Among the 5,000 companies on the list, the median three-year revenue growth rate was 130%, and those companies have collectively added more than 627,208 jobs to the U.S. economy over the past three years.

We congratulate all honorees on this significant achievement.”
