Abstract

The paper presents a list of the 10 most daring tech start-ups. The field was narrowed down by considering technological innovations in conjunction with the people who have bet on them: people, unlike new ideas, have track records that can be vetted. The 10 companies are as follows: (1) Microvision Inc.; (2) Cybernetix; (3) Lumileds Lighting LLC; (4) MeshNetworks Inc.; (5) Magiq Technologies Inc.; (6) Nantero Inc.; (7) Picsel Technologies Ltd.; (8) Crossbow Technology Inc.; (9) Microchips Inc.; and (10) Semikron International.
