Plus, for the first time, semifinalists will be eligible for up to $150K in investments from Cyrannus, a network of experts aiming to help founders connect with the VC market.
Improving, a Dallas-based modern digital services company, has acquired Jump Analytics, a technology firm specializing in advanced analytics and corporate performance management, with offices throughout Canada. Improving said the transaction is expected to increase its annualized revenue exceeding $290 million and will further its geographic reach throughout North America.

After years of holding its annual event in Frisco, CodeLaunch DFW is coming to Southside Music Hall at Gilley’s in Dallas on November 16. Six companies will face off for the top prize in an event that comprises a tech tradeshow, a startup conference, and a “raucous networking event.” And this year it's modeling itself after local favorite Digital Fight Club.
“CodeLaunch is a startup and rock-n-roll show like nothing you've ever seen before,” promises President and Founder Jason Taylor.
Ten local founders and innovators sparred in gloves-off debates, "fighting" to win each round.
The fight card included challenges like: Should brands be transparent? Should the government be involved in building the metaverse? And is ESG important? Here are the knockout rounds.
