Meet the VOICE19 Award Winners

The VOICE19 Awards ceremony Wednesday evening served as a real showcase of the industry. The 12 winners represent a broad array of the potential applications of voice technology. A panel of judges, [Disclosure: Voicebot’s Bret Kinsella served as a judge] voted to pick the finalists and winners from an initial pool of nearly 200 submissions. Each winner was rated based on creativity, innovation, understanding of market fit, and voice user experience. Along with the VOICE19 winners, two other awards were presented, the Alexa Cup and the Samsung Bixby Developer Sessions award. Check out the full list of winners:
