The Globee® Awards, organizer of the world’s premier business awards programs and business ranking lists, is now accepting nominations and entries for the Annual 2023 Disruptor Companies List from both privately owned and public businesses all over the world. Disruptor companies have the potential and competence to displace existing solutions, companies, and even entire industries. 

Eligibility: Public or Private organizations from all over the world.

Disruptive companies are companies that introduce new and innovative products or services that fundamentally change the way an industry operates. They challenge traditional business models and create new markets by offering customers a better value proposition, often at a lower cost. Disruptive companies often challenge established market leaders and can significantly impact the competitive landscape in a given industry. Disruptive companies can be found in many industries including technology, transportation, retail, and healthcare, among others.

Disruptors are highly persistent, mostly beginning from scratch without the constraints of traditionally accepted processes or business models. They use technology and modern tools to achieve end results. Disruptors do things differently and are not hindered by existing ways of industry stalwarts. They are ready to take on an enormous challenge and find solutions for the biggest pain points customers experience.
