Signify Health Named to Fast Company’s Annual List of the World’s Most Innovative Companies for 2021
Signify Health, Inc. (NYSE: SGFY) has been named to Fast Company’s prestigious annual list of the World’s Most Innovative Companies for 2021, ranking eighth in the Health category. As a fast-growing, mission-oriented company, Signify was recognized for its role in helping to transform the healthcare delivery system so that more people can enjoy healthy, happy days at home.
This list honors the businesses that have not only found a way to be resilient in the past year, but also turned those challenges into impact-making processes. According to Fast Company, these companies did more than survive, they thrived -- making an impact on their industries and culture as a whole. This year’s Most Innovative Companies list features 463 businesses from 29 countries.
“This award is an incredible recognition of the people at Signify who are taking on the difficult work of transforming healthcare from a break-fix model to one that is organized around the whole health of a person so that they can live more healthy, happy days at home,” said Kyle Armbrester, CEO of Signify Health. “In focusing on this mission, we have built an engine that helps providers, health plans, employers, social care organizations and other partners reach more people with innovative solutions for some of the most complex problems in healthcare. We look forward to many exciting milestones ahead.”
