Submit a company for CNBC's 2025 Disruptor 50 list.

Applications are now being accepted for the 2025 Disruptor 50 list, which is CNBC's thirteenth annual examination of the most innovative venture-backed companies that employ groundbreaking technology to tackle growing economic and consumer challenges.

The deadline for submissions is Friday, Feb. 10 at 11:59 pm EST.

Eligible companies are those founded after January 1, 2010, and any founder, executive, investor, or communications representative of such companies can submit an application.

The nominees will undergo a thorough evaluation process that involves extensive research and assessment of various criteria, such as scalability, revenue growth, user growth, and the application of innovative technology.

In 2020, about 67% of the 50 companies on the Disruptor 50 list identified artificial intelligence as essential to their operations, including OpenAI, which has been the top-ranked company for two consecutive years.

While two-thirds of last year's Disruptors were AI companies, the 2025 list will also recognize market-changing innovations in food, energy, financial services, and other industries where some disruptions have been less dependent on the generative AI boom.

CNBC's two advisory boards, comprising leading academic thinkers in innovation and entrepreneurship and top-tier venture capitalists, will provide weighting for the quantitative criteria that underpin the list's proprietary methodology, making the Disruptor 50 recognition a gold standard in the startup community. The quantitative score is combined with a qualitative assessment and editorial review, performed by CNBC staff, who read every submission to finalize the selection of this year's fifty.

In June, CNBC will release the list of 2025 honorees, who will be notified in April.
