Here are the 6 most popular questions you've asked about Fast Company's Brands That Matter Awards and everything you need to know.
 
  1. What are the Brands That Matter Awards? This new program will showcase brands that are more than the products they sell or the services they provide, that have achieved relevance through cultural impact and social engagement, and whose branding authentically communicates their missions and ideals.
  2. If I win, will I be in Fast Company magazine? Yes! Winners will appear in the November 2021 issue of Fast Company and on fastcompany.com.
  3. How can I increase my odds for recognition? Every applicant must submit to the Brands That Matter list, but you can also submit to any of the regional, customer, company size, or current event categories for additional recognition. Multiple honorees will be named in each region.
  4. What are the editors looking for in an application? Applications will be judged on relevancy, cultural impact, ingenuity, and business impact.
  5. Can I secure the early-rate pricing and continue to edit my application? Yes! Once you’ve paid, you may go back to the entry form’s fields anytime before applications close on April 23, 2021.
  6. I still have questions, who can I ask? Just reply directly to this email and we’ll get right back to you.
