For the second year in a row, Cox Enterprises has been recognized by Great Place To Work® and Fortune on the 2025 Fortune Best Workplaces in Technology™ List. Additionally, Cox is among the 2025 Fortune America's Most Innovative Companies.

"At Cox, we believe that innovation thrives in an environment where our employees are empowered to collaborate and grow," said Dallas Clement, president and CFO at Cox Enterprises. "These awards reflect our commitment to our people and are a testament to the dedication of our teams to drive meaningful change through technology."

For over 125 years, Cox has carried a legacy of innovation by supporting programs that create lasting impact for people and the planet. This future-focused spirit can be seen across its diverse initiatives from Cox Farms, a leader in indoor agriculture advancing sustainable food production, to Socium Ventures, which invests in pioneering startups shaping the future of technology. Since 2007, Cox has invested more than $2 billion in cleantech businesses and technologies.

"What makes these recognitions so special is that they reflect our people," said Karen Bennett, executive vice president and chief people officer at Cox Enterprises. "Their collaboration, resilience and dedication are what make Cox such a great place to work, and I couldn't be prouder to see that recognized again this year."

Great Place To Work determines its lists using its proprietary platform Trust Index™ Survey to evaluate and certify thousands of organizations in America's largest ongoing annual workforce study, based on over 1.3 million survey responses and data from companies representing more than 8.4 million employees. Fortune and Statista compiled the 2025 America's Most Innovative Companies list, ranking more than 25,000 U.S. companies across three pillars: product innovation, process innovation, and innovation culture. Companies received a score, with each pillar accounting for a third of the total score.
