The annual MIT Sloan CIO Symposium taking place May 19-20 in Cambridge, Mass. will feature 10 startup businesses that offer innovative solutions for IT executives during its 2025 Innovation Showcase.
The Innovation Showcase offers CIOs and other IT leaders a chance to explore early-stage US-based businesses. Aperio, Arundo Analytics, Bluumly, DataTrails, DBOS, FenixPyre, iCustomer, Narratize, Silverthread, and Skyline Nav were named finalists for the showcase.
“It’s an honor to continue to support emerging enterprises as they connect with industry leaders, fostering collaborations that consistently drive meaningful innovation and mutual success,” Anton Teodorescu, chair of the Innovation Showcase, said in a statement.
MIT Sloan said the businesses were chosen based on several criteria, including having an enterprise IT solution commercially available, less than $10 million in annual revenue, selling solutions to CIOs or corporate IT departments, and showing innovation and strategic value with potential bottom-line impact.

Next week’s two-day symposium will feature dozens of speakers and panelists, including Oracle’s Roger Barga, senior vice president for artificial intelligence and machine learning, Bill Pappas, executive vice president and head of global technology operations for MetLife, Monica Caldas, global chief information officer for Liberty Mutual Insurance, and many other top IT leaders.
InformationWeek’s Senior Editor Joao-Pierre S. Ruth and Senior Executive Editor Ben Cole will provide live coverage from the event next week.
