Business Insider has named over 350 startups this year as ones to watch according to the experts: the venture capitalists who know the markets intimately.
As the year comes to a close, we’ve sifted through those companies and selected the top 100 startups of 2020.
Our first-ever list of the top 100 startups of the year heaps investor praise on companies ranging from the seed-stage fledglings to the multibillion-dollar market leaders.
Many of these startups hired workers, raised capital, and built useful products and services despite the year’s challenges — and some had success because of the unusual environment they’re in.
For instance, they delivered food, furniture, and house plants as more and more people opted to stay home.
Others created software to help people be more effective, wherever they work from.
And plenty of companies kept us distracted from the real world with video games and other media.
We also kept our eye on healthcare startups working to keep us healthy and calm.
