We were thrilled to again sponsor the Summerfest Tech Pitch Competition, where emerging tech companies from across the Midwest competed for a share of $50,000. Chicago startup REACH Pathways, which uses a video-game platform to connect young job seekers and employers, took home the top prize of $20,000. Milwaukee-based RoddyMedical, Inc. secured the second-place prize of $10,000, while Chicago’s Liff Happens, Inc. won a $5,000 award for third place. Roddy Medical also received an additional $5,000 as the "Hometown Winner," an award that celebrates Milwaukee's status as a global tech hub. The remaining five startups were each awarded $2,000 for their innovative contributions. "This year’s competition has once again demonstrated the incredible potential and ingenuity of our entrepreneurial community. At Molson Coors, we are proud to support these trailblazers who are pushing the boundaries of tech innovation in their respective fields," said Jonah Turner, head of technology innovation, Molson Coors. "We are particularly thrilled for REACH Pathways, and we look forward to seeing how this well-deserved prize will accelerate their growth and impact.” Congrats to all the winners!

Six years ago, Wing recognized a glaring gap in the startup landscape. ⬇️ Insights into enterprise startups are often limited to private conversations within boardrooms and management meetings — and this lack of visibility makes it challenging for startup community members to identify the most promising companies in this space. To address this issue, we created the Enterprise Tech 30, an exclusive list of the private companies in enterprise technology with the most potential. Download the 6th annual ET30 here (including in-depth profiles on each company): 🔗www.enterprisetech30.com In your opinion, what makes a startup stand out as a potential leader in enterprise technology? Team? Technology? Something else?
