Don’t miss your company’s chance to be honored as a Most Innovative Company.
Your team has worked hard to change its business and industry through innovation—but has the impact been worthy enough for you to be named a Most Innovative Company? There’s only one way to find out. Apply now for this unrivaled honor.
Early Rate Ends August 11
Still need more convincing? Here are 5 more reasons to get your application started now.
Brand Exposure and Visibility
Every company that applies is seen and carefully evaluated by Fast Company’s editorial staff. All honorees (and this year there will be more honorees than ever before) will appear in the March/April 2024 issue of Fast Company magazine and on fastcompany.com.
Attract Talent
In conversations with so many CEOs, they tell us that talent is one of their biggest issues: recruiting the best people, retaining them, motivating them. Gaining the Fast Company stamp of approval for creating a truly breakthrough innovation can be a meaningful catalyst in all of these efforts. To work at one of the World’s Most Innovative Companies means that this is a business with a mission and purpose larger than merely making money.
Signal Investors
The other thing most CEOs care about, particularly of privately held companies, is capital. Building the future requires funding—to hire the best talent and to deal with whatever expenditures are necessary to achieve their vision. While there is not a direct cause and effect between being recognized and successful fundraising, it is precisely the kind of signal that communicates to investors that your products and services are resonating with consumers and the public.
Join a Community
Not only does being named one of the Most Innovative Companies grant year-round recognition for your organization’s achievements, but you’ll also be joining Fast Company’s larger community. These members are first in line for speaking opportunities at events such as the MIC Summit and Fast Company Innovation Festival. They’re the ones whose forthcoming news will merit heightened consideration for coverage.
Get the Exclusive Innovation Trends Report
For the first time ever, all applicants will receive our Most Innovative Companies Innovation Trends Report curated by Fast Company editors. This is an MIC-applicant exclusive that will not be made public. P.S. In case you need a sixth reason, apply by August 11 and save on your application fee! Plus, you can pay now, claim the early rate, and continue working on your answers until the final deadline.
