Introducing the Inno Madness Bracket

Ian Lawson

The second round of our NTX Inno Madness competition is done. And there are now 8 North Texas technology companies remaining that are vying for the title of 2022 Inno Madness champion.

NTX Inno Madness is our bracket-style challenge where readers vote to advance technology companies based on one question: Which company would you invest your fictional dollars in? Whether you believe in one mission or product slightly over the other or would prefer to back a more established company versus an early-stage startup, how you answer that question is entirely up to you. The bracket is designed to spotlight innovative, fast-growing local businesses. Click here for results from the first round.

Tens of thousands of votes were cast in the second round and here are the results (click here for the numbers):

Matchup 1: Linear Labs (52.7%) beat It's Not Complicated Education (47.3%)
