Chicago, IL (November 3, 2016) – FourKites was recently recognized as one of the “Best Entrepreneurial Companies in America” by Entrepreneur magazine’s Entrepreneur 360™ List, the most comprehensive analysis of private companies in America. Based on this study forged by Entrepreneur, FourKites is recognized as a well-rounded company that has mastered a balance of impact, innovation, growth and leadership.
“I’m very proud of the value that we’re adding to our customer base. We’re honored to be recognized by Entrepreneur,” said Fourkites CEO Mathew Elenjickal.
“Our annual evaluation offers a 360-degree analysis of the current private-business landscape,” explains Lisa Murray, Chief Insights Officer of Entrepreneur Media, Inc. “Top performers are determined by how well-rounded they are in these four key operative areas.
