Lunchpool wins “Emerging Tech” award during recent “Synapse Summit”

In announcing Lunchpool as winner in the “Emerging Tech” category of the inaugural “Synapse Innovation Awards,” the presenter described the start-up as “born in Tampa Bay and grown in Knoxville.”

Co-Founder Alex Abell told us in a follow-up email that he would have been happier if they had said Lunchpool was “made in Knoxville. I think it’d almost be perfectly on cue with KEC’s new ‘Made for Knox’ initiative.”

Look for a teknovation.biz update soon on the virtual event company. In the meantime, click here to view the announcement of Lunchpool’s award that was announced during the annual “Synapse Summit” that celebrates the Tampa Bay start-up ecosystem.
