The games are back.
New Mexico Inno is now accepting nominations for Inno Madness, our second-annual bracket competition designed to generate awareness of the companies driving New Mexico's startup ecosystem.
How does Inno Madness work? It's simple. We're building a bracket, and we need your input.
Here's how you can take part: Nominate a New Mexico startup. We're looking for private startups and tech-enabled companies based in the Land of Enchantment. The New Mexico Inno team will put together the bracket using your suggestions, and we'll share all the resulting matchups in early March. Then, companies will go head-to-head throughout subsequent rounds of voting with you — our readers — determining who moves on from every matchup.
At the end of each round of voting, we'll our announce our second-ever Inno Madness winner.
Who was the first? That'd be Santa Fe-based Solstar Space Co., a space communications startup that recently worked on NASA's Artemis I mission.
Submit your nominations here. The form closes on Feb. 20, which means you have a little less than a month to let us know who you think should be in the running for the second annual New Mexico Inno Madness challenge.
Who'll win this year? Nominate a startup you think has a good shot and keep reading over the next couple of months to find out which startups progress and which one takes the crown!
