The selected companies represent a diverse range of technology companies spanning software, AI, medtech, fintech, big data, security, SaaS and cleantech sectors. These game-changing, on-the-rise companies were chosen by the CIX 2021 Selection Committee of 100+ global technology investors.
Companies were chosen based on several key factors including product/service offering, depth of management, market opportunity, business model and diversity of the management team. Companies were given the opportunity to include information on how the pandemic has impacted their business and how they are building for success.
"We saw a 14% increase in applications from all regions of Canada," said Lauren Linton, Executive Director of CIX. "The surge in applications shows that Canadian startups are keen to show off their innovation and get back to business. It's a very impressive cohort this year."
"Investors have been having a difficult time accessing deal flow due to the pandemic, and this list of curated companies helps them identify hot startups to target," added Linton.
