H1 Recognized as One of Forbes’ Best Startup Employers in 2024

Global healthcare intelligence platform placed among the top 500 U.S. companies from a long list of 20,000


NEW YORK, March 05, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- H1, the leading source of truth for global healthcare professionals, clinical trial, and research information for life sciences, today announced that it has been included on the Forbes list of America’s Best Startup Employers 2024. This prestigious award is presented by Forbes and Statista Inc., the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider.

The America’s Best Startup Employers 2024 ranking examines best-performing startups as employers through defined KPIs to guide potential candidates in finding innovative and stable startups to work for. Companies considered in the evaluation must be headquartered in the U.S., founded between the years 2014 and 2021, employing at least 50 employees, and exhibit a startup structure.

More than 7 million data points were gathered and analyzed. Out of 20,000 companies, only 3,000 qualified for an in-depth analysis based on the following criteria:

  • Employer Reputation: Relevant workplace aspects and search terms are defined and tested (e.g., employee engagement, company/corporate culture, company strategy). Algorithm-based text analysis was used to categorize positive, neutral, or negative content.
  • Employee Satisfaction: Topics involved retention, compensation and benefits, workplace flexibility, diversity and inclusivity, and others.
  • Growth: Data regarding website traffic, headcount growth, headcount total, job openings, and other indicators was analyzed.

Based on the study results, H1 was awarded one of America’s Best Small Employers 2024.

Our team excels at furthering our mission of creating a healthier future for all, and we're deeply grateful to Forbes for recognizing this commitment,” said Ariel Katz, co-founder and CEO at H1.
