2026 Award Winner: Emerging ScaleUP of the Year

Описание: The Emerging ScaleUP of the Year Award is presented to a company that is breaking through in its industry, establishing a meaningful market presence and gaining significant traction.

This year’s winner, Taiv from Winnipeg, Manitoba, is transforming the entertainment experience through real‑time AI innovation. Taiv’s platform detects commercials as they happen and replaces them with in‑house promotions, licensed content, or more relevant advertising — turning traditional entertainment systems from a cost center into a profit center. It’s a powerful example of how emerging scaleups can reshape entire industries through creativity, technology, and bold execution.
