Who made it to the Last Sixteen?
After a total of 84,300 votes (woah!) and a handful of extremely close matchups in the first two rounds of the 2017 Tech Madness bracket, we are down to the Last Sixteen. The regions are updated, complete with the 16 Boston tech companies that are still dancing, as well as how to vote for who you think should make it to the Quarter Finals.
In the "So Don't I" conference we saw the #7 Seed, Cybereason upset the Boston tech giant, Hubspot. Over in the "Bang a U-ey" conference the #4 seed, CarGurus, talked a big game, but didn't bring enough votes to the table against #12 seed, Toast. And one more upset in the "Packie Run" conference, we witnessed #10 seed, Drizly, kick #2 seeded, LogMeIn, to the curb.
As a reminder, Tech Madness is a friendly competition designed to generate awareness, excitement, and buzz for the city's thriving innovation economy and the companies that are helping shape and strengthen the ecosystem.
Each matchup in Tech Madness is determined by community voting, with readers just needing to answer one question to decide who moves on - Who do you think will have the greater impact in five years?
