Alnylam Named One of Fast Company's Most Innovative Companies for 2026
RNAi pioneer recognized by Fast Company for the 3rd time for continued innovation in gene-silencing medicines
March 30, 2026
At Alnylam, we pioneered the medical breakthrough that is RNA interference (RNAi) therapeutics — a completely new class of medicines that silences disease-causing genes. Rather than resting on this achievement though, we continue to push the boundaries of our technology to target new tissues and diseases...because we know that patients are waiting.
This relentless drive has earned us a reputation as a truly innovative company, defined not just by our science, but by a bold, collaborative culture and forward-thinking business practices and it continues to earn us recognition as one of Fast Company's Most Innovative Companies. Inclusion in this year's list marks our third time being named a Most Innovative Company (2019 and 2022).
Alnylam's culture is to turn challenges into opportunities, and this recognition from Fast Company reflects exactly that. We are proud to be pushing the boundaries of what's possible for patients." - Pushkal Garg, MD, Chief Research and Development Officer, Alnylam
In the Medicines and Therapeutics category, we ranked 3rd joining peers Gilead Sciences and Vertex Pharmaceuticals in the top three. Eligible companies in this category work on "advances in treatments, vaccines, and drugs that help people live longer, healthier lives."
