Seattle Inno is looking for nominations for Inno Madness, our startup bracket challenge.
Inno Madness is designed to generate awareness and excitement for the Seattle area's startup ecosystem — and those companies that are pushing it forward. We want this competition to extend beyond tech and recognize all types of innovators.
So, how does Inno Madness work? It's easy. Nominate a local startup. We’re looking for private, tech-enabled businesses or companies that support innovation. The Inno team will then assemble brackets based on your nominations.
We’ll reveal the bracket in late March and companies will go head-to-head through four rounds with you, our readers, voting to determine who moves on from every matchup. Voting for each round will last one full week. After every week, we’ll post the updated bracket and voting will begin again. We’ll announce our annual Inno Madness winner at the end.
This is the third year of the competition. Last year, Oggvo, a reputation management company based in Seattle, took home the top honors after defeating Opala, a health care data company also headquartered in Seattle. Real estate fintech startup Flyhomes won the competition in 2022.
Nominations can be submitted here, but don't wait. The nomination period for Inno Madness ends on March 19.
