Business Review decided to include the Best Start-up category this year in a move designed to award the vibrant star-up community in Romania. For years, the magazine has awarded the Best Start-up Supporter, which recognized financiers or other organizations that backed the development of the local ecosystem for young companies with extensive growth potential.

The award recognizes the most promising start-up that has the potential to bring major changes in a certain industry. It takes into account the innovation factor of the service or product that the start-up is working on and the potential growth patterns. The award also takes looks at other recognitions that the start-up has previously received and the manner in which the start-up has been able to finance its operations up to now.

The finalists were selected by an independent jury based on the following criteria:

General: description of the start-up; the year in which it launched its service or product; age of start-up: up to 3 years; profile of founder(s)

Objectives & Strategy: innovation factor, concept quality, disruption potential

Evidence of Results: financing type, growth potential, recognitions, business achievements, impact on overall start-up scene

The finalists of this category are:
