Wisdo Named One of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies for 2019
Summary
TEL AVIV, Israel--( BUSINESS WIRE )-- Wisdo , the transformative self-care platform that helps guide people through meaningful life events, announced it has been named to Fast Company’s prestigious annual list of the World’s Most Innovative Companies (MIC) for 2019 in the social media category. The list honors the businesses making the most profound impact on both industry and culture, showcasing a variety of ways to thrive in today’s volatile world. “Being recognized among Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies further validates our success in creating a network meant to support mental wellness, instead of impair it, by connecting people around these shared experiences and drawing from the collective wisdom of those who have been there.” Wisdo provides the world’s first map of human wisdom, or experienced-based knowledge, collecting the key touchstones and critical steps in the thousands of life experiences and applying its proprietary machine learning technology to cluster and connect the people who have “been there.” This results in a “Wisdom Graph” filling the gap left by Google’s Knowledge Graph and Facebook’s Social Graph - namely, a network that supplies timely and forward-looking insights and services that reduce anxiety, increase social support and build self esteem. Founded by media and tech industry veterans Boaz Gaon and Ido Jonathan Engel, Wisdo received funding from leading Silicon Valley angels and JAZZ Venture Partners.
