Congratulations to the River Rival 2025 Cohort!

After an action-packed two days at Something Tech. 25 and the entire week celebration of Something Fest., we wrapped up with River Rival, the finale event, spotlighting eight pioneering emerging tech products and businesses! 🚀 During the finale event night, nine founders showcased their companies to a panel of judges and a live audience. They fielded thought-provoking questions, received valuable feedback, and competed for awards and accolades. The energy in the room was truly electric! ⚡⚡
