About LinkedIn Top Startups List
The list is a part of the LinkedIn List franchise, an ongoing editorial series that celebrates professionals and companies making an impact across the world. To be considered for this year’s list, companies needed to be privately held, be seven years old or younger, and have 50 or more employees. LinkedIn then looked at the activity of its own users – which exceed more than 500 million – in order to factor in employee growth, job seeker interest and engagement with the company on the platform. The startups were also assessed on how well they were able to attract talent away from the established players on LinkedIn’s Top Companies List.
