Since 2005, the RSAC Innovation Sandbox Contest has brought together the most promising young companies in the cybersecurity space to compete for the title of “Most Innovative Startup.” Recognized as a platform that opens new doors for startups, the contest’s top 10 finalists have collectively seen 48 acquisitions and received $5.2 billion in investments over the past 15 years. Previous winners include Imperva, Phantom, and most recently, Axonius. Qualifying companies can apply online for a chance at competing in the RSAC Innovation Sandbox Contest.

RSAC Launch Pad, now in its second year, gives early stage startups a platform to introduce their game-changing solutions to high-profile security venture capitalists in a Shark Tank®-style format. Three finalists have five minutes to pitch their ideas to the panel of expert judges and will walk away with invaluable insights and tips to take their business to the next level, and potentially secure real funding. Interested parties can apply online to compete in RSAC Launch Pad.
