Today, TIME reveals the fourth-annual TIME100 Most Influential Companies list, highlighting companies making an extraordinary impact around the world. The list, which features the world’s most innovative companies, highlights the role of the Depop community in advancing and promoting circular fashion.
To assemble the list, TIME solicited nominations across sectors, and polled its global network of contributors and correspondents, as well as outside experts. Then TIME editors evaluated each on key factors, including impact, innovation, ambition, and success. The result is a diverse group of 100 businesses helping chart an essential path forward.
Depop CEO Kruti Patel Goyal said: “We’re honoured to be part of this list of ambitious companies driving change on a global scale. This is a great acknowledgement of the power of our vibrant community of buyers and sellers, who’ve played a pivotal role in spreading the excitement of resale and helping make secondhand fashion a truly inspiring and desirable alternative to buying new, for more people.”
“Together with our community, we’re on a mission to encourage millions more people to choose secondhand and extend the lives of their clothes - by growing a dynamic marketplace that opens up access to resale, for everyone.”
