Cincy Inno and the Cincinnati Business Courier have opened nominations for Inno Madness, our sixth-annual bracket-style competition featuring some of the region’s most notable startups.
The challenge aims to raise awareness and drive excitement for the city’s ecosystem and spotlight those driving it forward.
The 2023 Inno Madness contest will launch in March. The nomination deadline is Feb. 17.
How does Inno Madness work? Nominate a local startup (i.e., a private, tech-enabled businesses).
The Cincy Inno team will assemble the brackets based on those picks. In March, we’ll reveal the companies that will go head-to-head. Votes from readers will determine who moves on each round. And when casting your ballot, there’s one key baseline question to consider: Who would you invest in? Every week, we’ll post the updated bracket, and at the end, we’ll announce our annual Inno Madness winner.
Game on.
