Brea, Calif. – Earlier this year 6D Helmets submitted a 90 second video to Fast Company Magazine’s “Drive Your Business Forward” contest depicting how a Sprinter van would help support their business. 6D was chosen out of hundreds of entries by the Fast Company Magazine and Mercedes Benz judging panel to receive the customized award. On November 6th 2013, during Fast Company’s Innovation Uncensored event held in downtown San Francisco, Mercedes’ Antje Williams presented 6D’s Bob Weber and Robert Reisinger with the keys to their amazing van. Amie Deutch, Fast Company’s Associate Publisher stated; “Fast Company covers the intersection of great design, technology and innovation – and 6D Helmets fuses these elements together into a game-changing product. We chose 6D as the winner of the Drive Your Business Forward contest because they are poised to impact the entire helmet industry, and a new Sprinter will allow them to bring their business to the next level.” 6D’s Bob Weber was thrilled. “We are very fortunate to receive this amazing award. This van just ices the cake on a simply incredible year for our company! “
