Technossus was honored to be among the winners, and we would like to recognize the other nominees and recipients of this years’ awards — it was an amazing collection of entrepreneurs and innovators to be a part of, and showcased the depth and breadth of the Orange County technology landscape.

“The key ingredients for an environment that fosters innovation and growth are availability of capital, a talent pool of the best and brightest minds, and the quality of life to keep them,” said Ravnish Bhalla, Technossus CEO.

“Orange County has always been one of the best places to live, but has lagged behind Silicon Valley and other top tier technology hubs for investment capital and top talent. That is no longer the case: investors, entrepreneurs, and top-rate technologists have grown Orange County’s technology ecosystem so that it rivals any in the nation — in quality, if not sheer size.” Bhalla said.

“For Technossus, as a technology company, there is no better time than now and no better place to call home than Orange County. The OC Technology Alliance Awards were a tremendous demonstration of just how much Orange County has to offer, and we are honored to be a part of this amazing community.”
