To earn Best Workplaces for Innovators recognition, all of this year’s winners completed an application that addressed questions about projects, investment, company-wide programs, and workplace culture. Fast Company editors evaluated every application and conducted additional research to generate a score for each company. A separate judging panel reviewed the 125 top-ranked companies to select the overall winner. The judging panel included Tomas Chamorro-Prémuzic, chief innovation officer, Manpower Group; Jana Rich, founder, Rich Talent Group; Stefan Seiler, group head of human resources, UBS; Jordan Taylor, cofounder and CEO, Medley; and Brendan Vaughan, editor-in-chief, Fast Company. Applications for categories were judged solely by Fast Company editors.
