Last week was the Challenge Cup São Paulo’s Regional competition, held at SuperNova Labs. Dozens of startups delivered their one-minute pitch on stage to a panel of judges, where one company from each category would emerge as the winner and move onto the final round.
In the spirit of Tech Cocktail, however, we want your take. We ran a poll for each category (Education, Energy, Health, and Smart Cities), to see who you thought was the hottest of the group. The readers have spoken. Below are your Reader’s Choice winners.
The Challenge Cup São Paulo’s Hottest Showcasing Startups
Education
Timokids — An app with 3-D stories for children of many themes and situations that reflect the day-by-day of the kids, with the objective to educate, entertain and pass positive messages. The stories are found in different languages and can be authored by third-party writers.
Energy
BePots – Creating online information bridges between producers, institutions and consumers about the product’s post-consumption environmental impact so as to show the consumers which products can or cannot be recycled. This leads them to incorporate this information as a variable at purchase, thereby inducing companies to review the materials they use.
Health
iClinic — A new generation of medical programs for online clinics and management, helping many health professionals increase their productivity.
Smart Cities
Cargobr – Platform pioneer in Brazil that unites a simple and fast way carriers and companies that need to ship freight. Intuitive system that brings direct benefits to those who sell and those who hire freight through Cargobr.
Congratulations to the startups!
