Bright Machines Named to Inc.'s Inaugural Best in Business List in General Excellence


Bright Machines has been named to Inc.'s inaugural Best in Business list in the General Excellence category. Inc. created the Best in Business Awards to honor companies that have gone above and beyond to make a positive difference in the world this year.

The list, which can be found in the Winter issue of Inc. (on newsstands December 29, 2020), recognizes small- and medium-size privately held American businesses that have had a superlative impact on their communities, their industries, the environment, or society as a whole.

"To be recognized for addressing some of the world's most profound challenges is an honor. Manufacturers have been among the hardest hit this year, with COVID-19 upending supply chains and closing down factories. We're proud to have played a role in re-imagining manufacturing during a time when access to critical goods and services is more important than ever," said Amar Hanspal, Bright Machines CEO and Co-Founder. "I'm filled with pride knowing that the work the Bright Machines team does every day is driving positive change, at a time when the world needs it most."

Scott Omelianuk, editor-in-chief of Inc., says, "It's been an incredibly challenging year for companies. Across industries, businesses have had to make brutally tough decisions and face unprecedented uncertainty. That's why we knew 2020 called for a new recognition program, something to complement our annual Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private compaies in the country. For Best in Business, companies have prioritized tackling today's problems to lead us to a better future, even if they've struggled to stay in the black."



Instead of relying on quantitative criteria linked to sales or funding, Inc.'s editors reviewed the companies' achievements over the past year and noted how they made a positive difference in the world. They then selected honorees in more than 30 different industries--health, software, retail, business services, and more--and in age- and revenue-based categories. The applicant pool was very competitive, with around 2,700 entries and an acceptance rate in the low single digits-a huge success for these honors in their inaugural year.

Honorees for gold, silver, bronze, and general excellence across industries and categories are featured online at inc.com/best-in-business.
