AUSTIN, Texas, March 4, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --CB Insights today named SparkCognition to the fourth annual AI 100 ranking, showcasing the 100 most promising private artificial intelligence companies in the world. This makes SparkCognition one of only two companies to be listed on every AI 100 List since its inauguration in 2017.
"It's been remarkable to see the success of the companies named to the Artificial Intelligence 100 over the last four years. The 2019 AI 100 saw 48 companies go on to raise $4.9B of additional financing and nine got acquired," said CB Insights CEO Anand Sanwal. "It has been gratifying to see that CB Insights' data-driven approach to identifying the top AI companies using patents, customer traction, investor quality, market sizing and more has become so effective at picking the AI winners of tomorrow. We look forward to seeing what the 2020 AI 100 companies will accomplish over the course of this year and beyond."
In addition to disrupting core sectors including healthcare, retail, and finance, the 2020 AI 100 companies are revamping the broader enterprise tech stack. These companies span the globe, from the US, UK, China, Chile, and South Africa, and are supported by more than 600 investors.
"We're very happy to be named to CB Insights' AI 100 List for the fourth time," said Amir Husain, Founder and CEO of SparkCognition. "2019 was a banner year with tremendous value delivery to our clients, a $100M funding round, significant product releases, and seminal advancements in our AI research. And we are poised for an even more fantastic 2020!"
Through an evidence-based approach, the CB Insights research team selected the AI 100 from nearly 5,000 companies based on several factors including patent activity, investor quality, news sentiment analysis, proprietary Mosaic scores, market potential, partnerships, competitive landscape, team strength, and tech novelty.
