How Time Chose the TIME100 Most Influential Companies of 2023

TIME polled its global network of contributors and journalists, as well as outside experts, to compile the list. It also sought suggestions from a variety of sectors. Then, TIME editors assessed each candidate based on important criteria such as influence, originality, ambition, and success. As a result, a varied group of 100 companies are assisting in outlining a crucial future course.

Of the 2023 TIME100 Companies list, TIME Editor-in-Chief Sam Jacobs writes: “Since we began this effort, we’ve seen how quickly the role business plays in our lives can change. We launched this franchise following the first year of a pandemic that transformed how many people viewed their jobs, their offices, and work entirely. Company leaders were thinking in new ways about what they owed their employees, society, and the planet… businesses don’t just change the world but the people who work at them… [At TIME] our legacy is our strength and, like many of the companies on this year’s list, we are excited to be building what comes next.”
