DVDT sells highest-end audio and visual equipment to a national client base of government, academic, and corporate customers, and installs the equipment in settings that range from offices to convention centers.

Last fall, Special Counsel, a division of MPS Group, acquired Legal Network and expanded it from two markets to nearly 30, almost overnight. The company recruits lawyers to supplement the work force at firms that have recently taken on big cases. "It took me starting my own company and selling it to get the job I've always wanted," says founder Karl Schieneman.

Doing business with a government agency involves a certain amount of red tape. If that government agency is the Food and Drug Administration, the red tape can seem endless. Reglera helps medical device manufacturers and tissue banks navigate the regulatory maze to get their products and services to the market. The company was spun off from previous Inner City 100 company Enscicon.

Law firms hire Capitol Digital to store documents, mostly old e-mail. The business began as a copy shop with five Xerox machines in founder Lucas Mageno's living room. Capitol now has a dozen offices from Los Angeles to New York City, and plans to expand to Miami and Chicago soon.
