2 May 2018
Hazy (formerly Anon AI), one of our spin out companies, has won this year’s Microsoft Innovate AI competition. The award highlights start-ups harnessing the power of AI and machine learning on the global stage.
As winners, Hazy receives $1million of investment from M12 (formerly Microsoft Ventures) in partnership with Notion Capital. Innovate AI is a global competition launched and supported by M12.
