This is Bay Area Inno’s third year doing the Inno Awards, a feature that highlights startups in the region that are doing monumental work in their given industries. Unlike Startups to Watch, where we tip our readers off to up and coming startups that may one day make a big impact locally, The Inno Awards aims to honor those companies that have truly arrived.
The five companies featured in this issue are already selling products, building factories, inking deals with Fortune 500 companies and even saving lives. They have made significant contributions to the Bay Area’s startup scene and are at the precipice of tremendous achievement in sectors from health care to artificial intelligence.
Here is the third class of the Bay Area Inno Awards divided by category:
Artificial intelligence
SambaNova Systems - SambaNova takes on Nvidia with unique chips for AI
Autonomous vehicles
Glydways - Glydways takes a different path to autonomous rides
Fashion Tech
Unspun - Unspun is making fashion more efficient with 3D weaving technology
Health Care
