FORT WASHINGTON, Pa., June 28, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Forbes ranked M3, Inc. as the world's fifth most "Innovative Growth Company" of 2016.

This particular list includes mid-cap companies with a market value of $2-10 billion.

"Innovation is often defined as bringing together two or more things to create something new, to meet an emerging or ongoing need. We consistently seek new ways to combine medicine, media, and marketing to improve operations and communications of healthcare facilities, providers, and pharmaceutical companies, which ultimately benefits patients," states Craig Overpeck, CTO of M3 USA.
