Let the games begin.
Austin Inno is now accepting nominations for Inno Madness, our annual bracket-style competition that looks to build awareness of the tech startups leading the Austin startup ecosystem.
How does the competition work? First, by building a bracket, so we’ll need your input.
We’ll be taking nominations for private, tech-enabled startups based in the Austin area. The Austin Inno and Austin Business Journal teams will put together a bracket of 32 companies based on your recommendations and share the resulting matchups in early March.
After that, the bracket companies will compete through several rounds of voting with you – the readers – choosing which startups move on to the next round after every matchup.
The key question for readers casting votes is: Who would you most want to invest in?
At the end of the rounds of voting, the competition will conclude, and we will announce this year’s winner of Inno Madness.
Boardline Academy, a startup with a website where board members of homeowners associations can come to learn and earn certifications, won the 2022 Austin Inno Madness bracket. It narrowly beat runner-up Molecula.
Submit your nominations here. But don’t wait – the form closes March 6.
