ONE HUNDRED BEST WORKPLACES FOR INNOVATORS

OUR FIFTH ANNUAL BEST WORKPLACES FOR INNOVATORS LIST, CREATED IN COLLABORATION WITH ACCENTURE, RECOGNIZES 122 COMPANIES THAT UNDERSTAND BREAKTHROUGHS CAN OCCUR ON THE LOADING DOCK, NOT JUST IN A CORNER OFFICE. LIKEWISE, NO SINGLE COUNTRY HAS A MONOPOLY ON INNOVATION: FIVE OF THE TOP 10 COMPANIES ON THIS YEAR'S LIST ARE INTERNATIONAL, INCLUDING DESIGN DEMOCRATIZER CANVA (NO. 1) AND ENGINEERING POWERHOUSE SIEMENS, THE ONLY COMPANY TO HAVE APPEARED ON THE LIST ALL FIVE YEARS AND THEREFORE DESERVEDLY HONORED FOR SUSTAINED EXCELLENCE.

Canva

In just over a decade, Canva has grown to more than 125 million worldwide users who rely on its intuitive tools to create everything from birthday invitations to sales presentations. Innovations such as last year's new Visual Worksuite and the ongoing integration of generative Al have emerged from a culture that provides employees with internal coaching, career advancement programs for women engineers and early-career workers, and annual "Vibe and Thrive" stipends to pursue personal interests.

02 TORONTO
DealMaker

Founder and CEO Rebecca Kacaba launched the five-year-old crowdfunding platform to create new sources of capital for traditionally underfunded companies, including those started by women or marginalized groups, and to generate new pre-IPO investment opportunities for regular folk. To foster internal innovation, Kacaba's teams emphasize what she calls "adaptability quotient," or AQ: the ability to determine what's relevant, deflect obsolete knowledge, overcome challenges, and adjust to change.
