Mountain View, CA – February 24, 2021

InsightFinder received the “Most Backable Startup” award from a panel of student teams at the recent Venture Capital Investment Competition’s Silicon Valley event. Teams from universities including UC Berkeley, Pomona, San Diego State, Utah Valley, Santa Clara, and UCLA evaluated startups based on their product, market, and team – “backability”. All six student teams selected InsightFinder as the “most backable”.

 

“It’s rare we have a startup receive all six term sheets in a single competition. InsightFinder is clearly poised for success. The judges and students were impressed by InsightFinder’s team, market opportunity, and product. We pride ourselves on the success our startup alumni have and we expect big things from InsightFinder!” said Patrick Vernon, VCIC Director from UNC’s Kenan-Flager Business School

 

VCIC brings students, entrepreneurs, and venture capitalists together for a day of learning and networking capped off with an awards ceremony. Past participants say the VCIC experience is the best preparation for raising venture capital and starting a career in the field. The Silicon Valley regional event was part of a global network of events happening across the world, all culminating in a final round with winners meeting virtually in Chapel Hill, NC. 

 

According to Dan Turchin, InsightFinder CEO: “InsightFinder is proud to have participated in the event and be recognized as the most backable startup. Using AI in IT operations isn’t a new idea but InsightFinder is the first company to make it easy to use the most sophisticated algorithms to detect and predict incidents using unsupervised machine learning across metrics and logs. Our technology advantage is why customers like Dell and Credit Suisse partner with InsightFinder. VCIC was a great experience and we enjoyed meeting all of the judges and student teams.”
