Why LivePerson is called a “most innovative” company
This year, Fast Company named LivePerson to its Applied AI list, which honors companies “embracing artificial intelligence to reinvent how business is done.” Case in point: LivePerson technologies and services help the world’s top enterprises accelerate contact center transformation, orchestrate conversations across channels and systems, supercharge agent productivity, and deliver more personalized, AI-empowered customer experiences.

The most innovative companies shine a light
“We know that the future of brand-consumer interactions is digital-first, powered by AI, and based on the richest data source of all: conversations. Yet today, 70% of service and support experiences still take place in legacy, voice-first contact centers. This year’s Most Innovative Companies list validates that LivePerson is the bridge to the digital-first, AI-empowered future,” said John Sabino, CEO of LivePerson. “I’m so proud to share this outstanding recognition with everyone at LivePerson as we work every day to help our customer brands put conversations at the center of their business.”
“Our list of the Most Innovative Companies is both a comprehensive look at the innovation economy and a snapshot of the business trends that defined the year,” said Fast Company editor-in-chief Brendan Vaughan. “We saw extraordinary innovation across the board in 2023, but we also saw a handful of clear patterns: the growing footprint and impact of AI, the triumphant return of live events, and great leaps forward in climate tech. We face daunting challenges on many fronts, but the solutions we celebrate in MIC give me plenty of hope about the future.”
