LEHI, UTAH — March 24, 2026 — Pattern is proud to have been named to Fast Company’s prestigious list of the World Most Innovative Companies of 2026 for the third consecutive year. This year’s list shines a spotlight on businesses that are shaping industry and culture through their innovations. Alongside the World’s 50 Most Innovative Companies, Fast Company recognizes 720 honorees across 59 sectors and regions. 

Over the past 18 months, Pattern has delivered a wave of innovations that are redefining what's possible in ecommerce acceleration. The GEO Scorecard gives brands real visibility into how they appear on AI platforms like ChatGPT and Gemini — the new frontier of product discovery — along with data-driven recommendations to stay competitive as more consumers turn to AI to decide what to buy. TrendVision takes the guesswork out of social commerce by analyzing what's actually working on TikTok and Instagram and turning those insights into ready-to-execute video scripts and assets. The Portal, Pattern's first hardware-enabled solution, solves one of ecommerce's most persistent challenges — great product imagery at scale — by using high-fidelity image capture to create conversion-optimized images.

Pattern also completed its IPO on Nasdaq and made two strategic acquisitions that expanded its platform in meaningful ways. The acquisition of NextWave brought industry-leading TikTok Shop capabilities and a network of more than 1,200 managed creators and 300,000 affiliates. The acquisition of ROI Hunter added a performance-driven retail media platform that unifies product, marketing, and merchandising data to enable SKU-level advertising decisions.

The World’s Most Innovative Companies is Fast Company’s hallmark franchise and one of its most anticipated editorial efforts of the year. To determine honorees, Fast Company’s editors and writers review companies driving progress around the world and across industries, evaluating thousands of submissions through a competitive application process. The result is a globe-spanning guide to innovation today, from early-stage startups to some of the most valuable companies in the world.

“Our list of the Most Innovative Companies is about spotlighting organizations that don’t just adapt to change—they drive it,” said Brendan Vaughan, editor-in-chief of Fast Company. “The companies we honor this year are redefining what leadership looks like in 2026, pairing bold ideas with measurable impact and turning breakthrough innovation into real-world value. They are setting the pace for their industries and offering a blueprint for what sustained innovation can achieve.”
