The SINET 16 Get Results!
Interviews of CEOs from last year’s SINET Showcase indicated that the exposure their companies gained, augmented through SINET press releases and recommendations by SINET to third parties, generated important leads that resulted in sales contracts and equity investments.
The SINET 16 met channel partners and or technology partners that helped accelerate their penetration into the Federal market.
Participation in the process also helps companies to refine their messaging as there is mandatory coaching for the SINET 16 Innovators.
