Generator Studio ranked 19th in the Kansas City Business Journal’s 2024 list of the 50 fastest-growing companies in the Kansas City area. Generator is the highest-ranked architecture and interior design firm among the three firms named to the list.
When named to the list Kansas City Business Journal asked Co-founder Mike Kress: What’s been one key driver to your company’s growth?
“Consistency,” said Kress. “We commit senior-level design expertise to each pursuit and project. Our size allows us to chase the right clients and work, instead of simply chasing revenue.”
Based on average annual revenue growth from 2021 to 2023, the list requires businesses to attain revenue of $1 million or more in 2023 to qualify. The 2024 honorees achieved an average annual revenue growth of over 53% over the past two years. Notably, 42% of the honorees are middle-market companies—defined by the Journal as $10M to $1B in revenue in 2020.
Generator advanced 22 positions on this year’s list, ranking No. 19, compared to No. 41 in 2023.
