Fast Magazine has published its annual list of companies which made changes that mattered last year!

Actions speak louder than words so with more than 400 million active members Facebook hit the top of the list.

The revolutionary new concepts and features regularly introduced by Zuckerberg and crew got cloned by many, yet Facebook remains the networking platform of choice.

Other breakthrough ideas that made it were the obvious splattering of:  Apple (3), Nike (13), Spotify (15) and Twitter (50).

There were a few surprises though. Frito-Lay? Producing snacks with your health and our planet in mind!

33 of the companies are new entries, showing that there’s still a bunch of room for new and innovate ideas.

So think outside the box and focus on making innovative yet solid, reliable products/services that solve real needs and one day your customers might vote you in as one of the most innovative companies around. Hey, worth striving for.

Fast Company publishes their pick of companies annually – hopefully next year’s top 50 will be even funkier.
