The winners were selected by a panel of judges comprised of top tech founders, investors, and industry experts. The companies were evaluated based on growth, strength of the technology product or service, impact on the industry, and commitment to customer success.
“Winning the 2020 Startup Weekly award is a testament to the strength of our relationships with our clients. Working within higher education is a privilege and we are lucky to have the best clients in the world. 2020 will be a big year for us at InfoReady, we have set ambitious goals, but I have confidence in our ability to meet them due to the dedication of our mighty team, the quality of the solutions we can provide, and our strong relationships in higher education,” said Eric Jacobson, President of InfoReady Corporation.
