The World Economic Forum has announced 47 visionary companies selected as Technology Pioneers 2007. The companies products include microscopic pill cameras, bio sensors that localize landmines and implantable medical devices for the treatment of brain tumors.
The Technology Pioneers 2007 were nominated by the world’s leading venture capital and technology companies. The final selection from 225 nominees was made by a panel of leading technology experts appointed by the World Economic Forum.
To be selected as a Technology Pioneer, a company must be involved in the development of life-changing technology innovation and have potential for long-term impact on business and society. In addition, it must demonstrate visionary leadership, show the signs of being a long-standing market leader – and its technology must be proven.
