Company

Current and former clients include: Nike, Sony, HBO,[3] Aflac, Hyatt[4] and MTV's Room Raiders.[1]

FMYI purchases renewable energy credits for clients' energy use on FMYI.[3] Employees are expected to complete Natural Step training and are allowed to volunteer during the workday.[5]

FMYI released the 7th version of their system, "FMYI 7.0", on January 26, 2013.[6]
