EdgeCortix Awarded Japan-US Innovation Award 2024

WHAT: Dr. Sakyasingha Dasgupta, CEO and founder of EdgeCortix, will accept the honor and participate in a showcase presentation at the annual Japan – U.S. Awards Innovation Symposium at Stanford University on July 18, 2024. In cooperation with the Stanford University US–Asia Technology Management Center, The Japan Society of Northern California (JSNC) organizes timely and interesting programs that focus on Japan – U.S. innovation and entrepreneurship. 

The signature activity is an intensive year-long process to identify companies with a Japan – U.S. connection that have achieved highly noteworthy innovations in business or technology. Honorees exemplify companies that are ‘built around important innovations with great future promise’ and are deemed as exciting additions to the community of Silicon Valley investors, executives, and business experts who attend the Symposium.

For the last 14 years, the Innovation Showcase has recognized exceptional Japanese startup companies built around new technologies and innovative business ideas that have the potential for major worldwide impact, in both Japan and the US. EdgeCortix is honored to join past awardees from Japan including: Whill, Axelspace, Preferred Networks, Treasure Data, Astroscale, InfoStellar, iSpace, LPixel, and Valuenex.
