- Which Fortune 1000 companies are named on the most winning projects?
- PepsiCo (62), Kimberly-Clark (25), Abbott (21), General Mills (17) and Walmart (16), counted by GDUSA award-winning projects, 2015 to 2026.
- How does a client get on this list?
- Firms name the client when they enter work in the GDUSA awards. When the entry wins, the client is listed here with the firm that made the work. To add a client, enter the work and name them.
- How is the ranking calculated?
- Each client is ranked by the number of GDUSA award-winning projects that name it as the client, 2015 to 2026. The firms that entered the work supply the credits, and 46% of winning projects name a client. In-house work and student work aren’t counted. Spellings of the same organization are merged by hand. Clients with two or more winning projects are ranked, and the A to Z list has all 6,534. Fortune standing is from the 2026 Fortune 1000.
How we count
- Every credit comes from the firm that entered the work in a GDUSA award program. GDUSA doesn’t speak for the organizations named, and a listing isn’t an endorsement by them.
- 9,105 of 19,998 winning projects name a client, or 46%. The rest carry no client credit.
- A client here is an outside organization. Work a company’s own team made for itself doesn’t count, and neither does student work.
- Spellings of the same organization are merged by hand. Private individuals aren’t listed.
- Rankings count winning projects, so a firm that enters often lifts its clients. Rank by firms to count different firms instead.
