WalkMe is excited to announce that it has been selected as a Finalist for the prestigious 2014 TiE50 Awards Program! Winners will be announced on Saturday, May 16th at the organization’s annual entrepreneurial conference, TiEcon. Returning for the sixth year in a row, this year’s TiE50 is open to all technology companies worldwide.
To determine the winner, a panel of experts will screen the companies and create a list of the “2014 TiE50 Top Startups.” This list will then be reviewed further by a screening committee of deep domain experts. About 100 of the best of the breed companies are selected to the elite TiE50 Finalist pool. Finally, this pool of TiE50 Finalists are judged by a panel of highly accomplished team made up of serial entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, angel investors, CEOs and well-rounded technology experts, to determine finalists and winners. Companies will be evaluated on three parameters: Business Model, IP Value and Leadership team.
At TiEcon 2014, 20 of the top startups from each of the five segments will be chosen to pitch their ideas, and winners will be announced on stage that evening.
This year at the event, attendees and TiE50 participants will also have the chance to hear from three previous TiE50 winners who have made successful exits recently: FireEye, Pearl Therapeutics and Rubicon Project.
