Aquia Inc. Named to Inc.'s 2026 Best Workplaces List for Third Consecutive Year

The digital services firm earned recognition in the Government Services Industry category for its sustained investment in employee culture and engagement

WASHINGTON, June 10, 2026 -- Aquia Inc., a cloud and cybersecurity digital services firm, today announced it has been named to Inc.'s 2026 Best Workplaces list for the third consecutive year, earning additional recognition in the Government Services Industry category. The list honors American companies that have built exceptional workplaces and vibrant cultures that support their teams and businesses.

The award is the result of a comprehensive assessment of all applicants. The process involved a detailed employee survey conducted by Quantum Workplace that covered critical elements such as management effectiveness, perks, professional development, and overall company culture. Each company’s benefits were also audited to determine the overall score. Aquia is honored to be included among the 507 companies recognized this year.

"Being named to Inc.'s Best Workplaces list for the third year in a row is a reflection of the culture our team builds and protects every day," said David Maskeroni, CEO and co-founder of Aquia. "As a fully remote, employee-owned company, we know that when our people feel trusted, supported, and connected to the mission, it shows up in the work we deliver for our government partners, and ultimately, in better outcomes for Americans."

This recognition adds to Aquia's growing list of workplace honors, including being named the #1 Best Remote Startup to Work For in 2025 by Built In, ranking #44 on Fortune's 2024 Best Small Workplaces list, and earning OrangeSlices AI’s Elev8 GovCon award for four consecutive years.

“This year’s Best Workplaces list goes beyond great company culture — it highlights companies making meaningful and sustained investment in their employees,” says Bonny Ghosh, editorial director at Inc. “Even in a labor market that favors employers, these companies understand that an intentional and authentic commitment to their teams drives stronger employee retention, engagement, and ultimately, a stronger business overall.”
