Since 2008, Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies have been the definitive source for recognising the organisations that are transforming industries and shaping societies.
In 2019 and 2020, Fast Company South Africa recognised more than 30 organisations in South Africa with this prestigious honour, from the largest companies across the world to small startups with just a few employees.
In 2022, we’re going back to in-person gathering with more than 25 winners across various categories. Each admission for the 2022 Most Innovative Companies, South Africa will be individually evaluated by a team of Fast Company South Africa editors and independent judges.
