Last night at GraphConnect 2018, we announced the 11 winners of the 2018 Neo4j Graphie Awards at the conference’s closing reception.
TheGraphie Awards celebrate the world’s most innovative graph technology applications, recognizing success in connected data across multiple categories – not only forNeo4j customers but across the entire Neo4j community and ecosystem.
Partners, startup program members, data journalists, community members and ambassadors were all encouraged to submit their graph-based projects for consideration.
We had a wonderful pool of nominations, and choosing just 11 winners was definitely a difficult task. Here’s who got to take the final
