Geojam has been named to Fast Company’s prestigious annual list of the World’s Most Innovative Companies for 2022, landing a spot in the highly-competitive music category.

This year’s list honors businesses that are making the biggest impact on their industries and culture as a whole—ultimately thriving in today’s ever-changing world. These companies are creating the future today with some of the most inspiring accomplishments of the 21st century.

“We’re beyond thrilled to be recognized by Fast Company for our innovative shift from a Web2 social application to a Web3 platform that’s generating a unique, community-driven approach within the rapidly-growing creator economy,” said Sarah Figueroa, CEO, and co-founder of Geojam.

Launched in 2020, Geojam was originally built as a social engagement platform that generated unique experiences between artists and fans. To date, the company has generated meaningful, passion-fueled fan engagement with celebrities such as Mariah Carey, Machine Gun Kelly, and Nyjah Huston.

Moving forward, Geojam is continuing to build the creator economy of the future, one that redirects the flow of incentives back into the hands of creators and users themselves, all powered by the platform’s native token, $JAM. With the inception of $JAM, the company combines the technological advancements of decentralized finance with real-world experiences. This combination will inherently interweave the ethos of autonomous cryptocurrency communities and mainstream social networking.

Fast Company’s editors and writers sought out the most groundbreaking businesses across the globe and industries. The World’s Most Innovative Companies is Fast Company’s signature franchise and one of its most highly anticipated editorial efforts of the year. It provides both a snapshot and a road map for the future of innovation across the most dynamic sectors of the economy.

“The world’s most innovative companies play an essential role in addressing the most pressing issues facing society, whether they’re fighting climate change by spurring decarbonization efforts, ameliorating the strain on supply chains, or helping us reconnect with one another over shared passions,” said Fast Company Deputy Editor David Lidsky.

Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies issue (March/April 2022) is available online here, as well as in-app form via iTunes, and on newsstands beginning March 15. The hashtag is #FCMostInnovative.
