In the past nine months, nearly 200 companies have offered their words, data, knowledge, experiences, assistance, time and more to contribute to this project. We would like to express our gratitude for their contributions and acknowledge their input, without which this project would not have been possible. Contributing companies issued from all continents and nearly all industries with which the World Economic Forum works. In addition to the many firms from Silicon Valley that provided their time and input, we also sought to understand hypergrowth from a global and cross-industry perspective and received invaluable data from firms around the world.
