U.S. Chamber of Commerce Unveils the 2025 CO—100: America’s Top 100 Small Businesses

Meet the 100 owners and founders of U.S. companies driving innovation, growth, and impact in their communities and around the world.
September 3, 2025 — Washington, D.C.
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce and CO—, its award-winning digital platform for small businesses, today announced the 2025 CO—100, a prestigious list honoring the top 100 small businesses in America. Out of more than 12,500 applicants nationwide, Dreams Animation was not only recognized among the Top 100, but also selected as one of the Top 10 Tech Innovators in the country.
Dreams Animation, founded by Ricardo Diaz De La Vega, also known as RDV, represents the power of resilience, innovation, and faith. Twenty years ago, Ricardo arrived in the United States from Peru with little more than determination and a dream. From a small basement in Queens, NY, he began building websites for local businesses. Today, that vision has evolved into a company driving AI-powered transformation across industries.
“This recognition is proof that when a mind is fully committed to its dreams, extraordinary things can happen,” said Diaz De La Vega. “The Lord has been opening doors, taking me to places I never imagined, and allowing us to build something that now blesses thousands of people.”
A long-time student of Tony Robbins, RDV learned that innovation must be part of a company’s DNA. That lesson became the backbone of Dreams Animation’s culture. Even as a small business, the team dared to think bigger than their resources, leveraging creativity, resourcefulness, and relentless faith to push boundaries.
That spirit gave birth to LaVoice AI, the company’s flagship platform designed to revolutionize small business operations. LaVoice AI provides entrepreneurs with a virtual AI receptionist capable of handling multiple calls 24/7—never missing a customer interaction. The platform can:
- Book appointments instantly
- Explain services and pricing clearly
- Send and respond to emails
- Issue invoices
- Send and reply to text messages
All of this is done with intelligence, professionalism, and automation—ensuring small businesses provide world-class customer service without being tied to the phone.
“Even if we’re a small business, we dared to innovate beyond our limits. LaVoice AI is leveling the playing field for entrepreneurs, giving them the kind of customer service power once reserved only for large corporations,” said RDV.
Recognition Among America’s Best
The CO—100 honorees were selected by a distinguished panel of judges for their growth, innovation, and workplace culture. Together, these companies generate more than $400 million in annual revenue and represent over 50 local chambers of commerce across 35 states and Washington, D.C.As part of this honor, Dreams Animation will participate in the Small Business Forum in Washington, D.C. (October 6–8)—a three-day event at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce’s historic headquarters. The program includes networking in the Capitol with influential leaders, have national exposure, and opportunities to connect with investors, policymakers, and industry shakers.
