To create the Most Innovative Companies list, Fast Company analyzed information on thousands of businesses across the globe. The result is a unique package that strives to identify creative models and progressive cultures to define the many forms of innovation that exist across the business landscape.

Describing Ammunition, the article claims, "It ping-ponged from designing Barnes & Noble's hot e-book reader Nook to developing high-performance earphones for celebrity clients such as Lady Gaga and Dr. Dre."
