Activate Named #1 Fastest-Growing Leisure & Entertainment Company in the Americas and Canada's Fastest-Growing Company

WINNIPEG, MB, April 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Financial Times ranked Activate as the #1 fastest-growing Leisure and Entertainment company in the Americas for the second consecutive year, and the #1 fastest-growing company in Canada. The company also placed #11 across all industries in the Americas on the 2026 list.

"Players don't come to Activate to watch - they come to move, think, and win together," said Adam Schmidt, CEO of Activate. "Ranking #1 in Leisure and Entertainment and #1 in Canada shows just how fast Activate is growing. It reflects our team's drive, our Players' energy, and our focus on building the most fun way to play with your friends."

The Financial Times, in partnership with Statista, ranks the fastest-growing companies across North and South America based on compound annual revenue growth between 2021 and 2024.

Since launching its first location in 2019, Activate creates live-action games where skill, smarts, and teamwork win. What began in Winnipeg has scaled to more than 75 locations worldwide, including 64 across North America, and is expanding across Europe and the Middle East.

In 2026 alone, Activate has opened 10 new locations across six countries and surpassed 10 million visits globally.

Activate recently doubled its credit facility to $72 million with Export Development Canada (EDC) and RBC Royal Bank, with plans to reach 100 locations across 12 countries by 2027.

Activate also ranked #1 in the Entertainment category on The Globe and Mail's 2025 Top Growing Companies list for the second year in a row.
