Everactive Earns Fast Company’s World Changing Ideas Finalist 2022 for our Batteryless IoT Technology
IIoT Leader Everactive is Recognized for Ingenuity and Innovation
NEW YORK, NY, May 3, 2022 — The winners of Fast Company’s 2022 World Changing Ideas Awards were announced today, honoring clean technology, innovative corporate initiatives, brave new designs for cities and buildings, and other creative works that are supporting the growth of positive social innovation, tackling social inequality, climate change, and public health crises.
Everactive is thrilled to call itself a Fast Company Finalist in the Established Excellence category. The established excellence category of Fast Company’s World Changing Ideas Awards honors world-changing projects from companies that have been in business between 5 and 14 years.
“It is an honor to be recognized by such a world-class, innovative publication,” said Bob Nunn, CEO of Everactive. “Fast Company continues to share stories of the companies changing the way the world does business; we’re excited to be a 2022 Established Excellence Finalist and to continue to expand Everactive’s self-powered IoT platform to help bring game-changing products to market.”
Everactive’s proprietary ultra-low-power technology is the transformational foundation for completely batteryless and wireless IoT solutions. Requiring up to 1,000x less power than competing products, Everactive’s real-time asset monitoring devices operate entirely—and continuously—from low levels of “harvested energy.” Wireless IoT sensors that never require batteries can be deployed at a scale not possible with conventional sensors in order to generate massive new data sets that unlock high-value insights for enterprises, reduce carbon emissions, and save money along the way.
Now in its sixth year, the World Changing Ideas Awards showcase 39 winners, 350 finalists, and more than 600 honorable mentions—with climate, social justice, and AI and data among the most popular categories. A panel of eminent Fast Company staff members selected winners and finalists from a global pool of over 2,500 entries across transportation, education, food, politics, technology, health, social justice, and more.
“We are consistently inspired by the novelty and creativity that people are applying to solve some of our society’s most pressing problems, from shelter to the climate crisis. Fast Company relishes its role in amplifying important, innovative work to address big challenges,” says David Lidsky, interim editor-in-chief of Fast Company. “Our journalists have identified some of the most ingenious initiatives to launch since the start of 2021, which we hope will both have a meaningful impact and lead others to join in being part of the solution.”
