Inno Madness: Vote now to decide which of the 2 finalists will win the championship

Two companies remain in Inno Madness, and Orlando Inno readers get to decide who wins the championship.

The original 16 companies that participated in Inno Madness were seeded based on Crunchbase estimates of outside funding raised by each company since it was founded. However, few of the top seeds advanced to this round. Instead, the finalists are No. 9 iSportz and No. 14 Excel Formula Bot.

The bracket is designed to shine a spotlight on innovative businesses from across metro Orlando, the Space Coast and Volusia County.

The bracket is assembled based on reader nominations. Seeding was determined by investment raised since the companies' launch, based on estimates from Crunchbase.

The goal of Inno Madness is to give a snapshot of the wide range of innovative work underway at Central Florida companies, from nascent startups to fast-growing companies. The 2022 Inno Madness winner was WeatherFlow-Tempest Inc. The company is based in California but maintains operations in Daytona Beach.

This bracket is by no means a complete list of the area's best startups or most well-funded firms. Instead, the bracket is meant to represent the full breadth and diversity of the ecosystem.

Disappointed your company isn't included this year? Be sure to check in with Orlando Inno in early 2024, when we will take nominations for next year's Orlando Inno Madness competition.

Fourth-round voting begins now and continues until noon, March 27. Readers can cast one vote per matchup each round, and you can vote in this round even if you didn't participate in the first round of voting. Read the full voting rules here.

Orlando Inno ultimately will crown an Inno Madness winner on March 28.

Let's get into Round 4...
