To determine the list, rankings firm Statista compiled a list of more than 10,000 companies and deployed online survey panels where employees could score their own company. In total, over 40,000 people participated. A panel of 2,500 experts evaluated the three key dimensions of innovation, and experts including recruiters, management consultants and patent attorneys were invited to provide their opinion.
