Let the games begin.
Cleveland Inno is now accepting nominations for Inno Madness, a bracket competition designed to generate awareness of Northeast Ohio's startup ecosystem — and those people and companies that are driving it forward.
How does Inno Madness work? It's easy. We're building a bracket — and we want your input.
Here's how you can take part: Nominate a local startup. We’re looking for private, tech-enabled companies that support innovation. The Inno team will assemble brackets using the input you provide, and we'll share the resulting bracket matchups in early March.
At that point, 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 all the matchups after the weekly rounds of voting, we'll announce our Inno Madness winner.
Here are some things to to consider:
- Has the company raised any funding?
- Why would you invest in this company (i.e., an interesting concept or product, social impact, long-term potential)?
- What else do you want to share about the company you are nominating?
Nominations can be submitted here.
But don't wait! The nomination period for Inno Madness ends on Feb. 6.
