Each year, our dedicated team of researchers undertakes an extensive global search to identify startups and companies that are making an impact across various sectors.

These criteria ensure that only those demonstrating exceptional innovation, disruption, and potential are shortlisted.
After months of in-depth analysis, the result is a definitive list of companies that bring fresh ideas, challenge traditional models, and push the boundaries of what is possible. From cutting-edge tech innovators to sustainability pioneers, these 100 companies represent the very best the world has to offer.
