DENVER, CO – GOLFTEC, the world leader in golf improvement and club fitting, was named to Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies list for 2022, coming in at No. 3 in the Sports category. This is the second time GOLFTEC has been named to this list, earning the No. 9 spot on the 2017 Sports list.
Each year Fast Company selects the firms making the biggest impact with their initiatives across 52 categories, including Sports, where GOLFTEC can be found. Fast Company acknowledges that, “Technology continues to revolutionize sports, whether experienced on the field or viewed from the couch.”
