Congratulations to SortBox - Runner up at the 12th Founder Showcase Pitch Competition!
On Wednesday, November 7th, eight early-stage startup companies pitched on stage to a judging panel as well as hundreds of investors and press. While each company delivered riveting presentations, two startups stood out among the rest; winning both the audience vote and scoring the most points with the judges were Spikes and SortBox. In the end, although Spikes came out on top, the team at SortBox gave an intriguing and impressive presentation, resulting in high scores from the judges and an abundance of votes from the audience.
