Santa Monica, CA, April 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Maximus (maximustribe.com), the performance medicine telehealth company, today announced it has been named #7 on the Financial Times list of The Americas\u2019 Fastest Growing Companies 2026. This award is presented by the Financial Times and Statista Inc., a leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider. The full ranking was published today on FT.com.<\/p>\n
The Americas\u2019 Fastest Growing Companies 2026 ranking identifies the top 500 companies across North and South America that have achieved the highest compound annual growth in revenues between 2021 and 2024. Maximus\u2019s #7 placement puts it among an elite tier of the fastest-scaling businesses in the Western Hemisphere, and the second highest-ranked telehealth company on the list.<\/p>\n
Founded in 2020, Maximus is a performance medicine company that combines cutting-edge clinical science, board-certified physicians, and personalized treatment protocols\u2014all delivered through a 100% online telehealth platform. The company originally launched with its proprietary, patented testosterone optimization protocols. Since then, Maximus has expanded into GLP-1 weight loss treatments, hair regrowth, their patent-pending Oxytocin Calming Cream, and most recently, a new generation of peptide therapies including growth hormone releasing hormones (GHRHs).<\/p>\n
This growth reflects the rapid expansion of performance medicine as a category within American healthcare. Unlike traditional sick-care models that treat symptoms reactively, performance medicine focuses on optimizing health outcomes proactively by improving hormone levels, metabolic function, and overall physical performance in people who refuse to settle for average health. The direct-to-consumer telehealth model has proven to be a powerful delivery mechanism for this category, eliminating the access barriers and long wait times that have historically kept performance-focused treatments confined to concierge medicine practices.<\/p>\n
\u201cBeing recognized as the #7 fastest growing company in the Americas is a direct reflection of the demand for what we\u2019re building,\u201d said Dr. Cameron Sepah, Founder and CEO of Maximus. \u201cMillions of people know they can perform better\u2014physically, mentally, and professionally\u2014but the traditional healthcare system wasn\u2019t built to help them get there. We built Maximus to fill that gap: world-class clinical protocols, real physician oversight, and the convenience of a fully online experience. Our expansion from testosterone optimization into weight loss and now peptide therapies like GHRHs shows that when you give people access to safe, effective performance medicine, the demand is enormous.\u201d<\/p>\n
Maximus is backed by Founders Fund and 8VC, two of the most prominent venture capital firms in technology and healthcare investing. The company\u2019s sustained revenue growth from 2021 through 2024 demonstrates a durable business model built on strong client retention, expanding treatment protocols, and a growing base of clients who trust Maximus with their ongoing health optimization.<\/p>\n
Dr. Sepah added: \u201cOur mission has always been to help people transcend their potential\u2014to look, feel, and perform at their absolute peak. This ranking validates that the market for performance medicine is real, it\u2019s growing fast, and Maximus is leading it. We\u2019re just getting started.\u201d<\/p>\n
