It is a purely data-driven / algorithmic ranking that uses CB Insights data. We'd gathered this data via our machine learning technology (dubbed The Cruncher) as well as via several thousand direct submissions from firms and individual professionals using The Editor. The Investor Mosaic page walks through the factors considered in the algorithm in some detail but at a high- level, it considers several factors including: An investor's exits the frequency/volume, size, and stage of entry Network centrality connectivity to other investors. Think of it as akin to Google Pagerank. Consistency stage, industry consistency of investments Illiquid portfolio company value frequency, size and stage of entry in high value (but un-exited companies). Given relatively less weight as these are paper valuations Recency of performance Our focus was on these metrics since 2008. As a result, we didn't give a lot of credit to those who made glorious picks in the 80s, 90s, or early 2000s. This is a ranking of today's best VCs not the best VCs in history. Click here for the full list. We worked with The New York Times and used the CB Insights Investor Mosaic algorithm to develop a data-driven ranking of the top venture capital partners. Here are the top 100.

And the hype is well founded: IoT startups have attracted a cumulative $7.4B in venture investment over the past 6 years, according to our data. But the IoT extends well beyond the home and consumer-level gadgets. Asset-heavy industries like So far, the IIoT wave transforming heavy asset industries has been led by the old guard of tech giants such as GE, IBM, and Cisco. JANUARY 11, 2016 9 manufacturing, logistics, mining, oil, utilities and agriculture have also begun to apply IoT systems to improve efficiency and results. With machines and specialized sensors collecting data at every step of production, the potential gains from the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) are enormous. So far, the IIoT wave has been led by the old guard of industrial tech companies such as GE, IBM, and Cisco, who envision the IIoT as a core component of their future businesses. GE, in particular, pioneered the term "Industrial Internet" when announcing its $1.5B R&D commitment back in 2012. But more and more startups are attacking the needs of heavy industry by developing sensors, cloud platforms, networking infrastructure, as well as machine learning software to extract insights from the deluge of data. We mapped the startup landscape into 9 major categories: Manufacturing & Supply Chain These companies are using connected objects to enhance data collection in manufacturing and in the supply chain. These companies include CargoSense's connected black boxes for detecting the movement of containers as they are shipped. Also included here are manufacturing robots like Momentum Machines and Rethink Robotics, along with warehouse robots like RoboCV. Extraction & Heavy Industry This section encompasses sensor platforms designed for use in hard-hat environments like the oil and gas, mining, and construction industries. Some startups are focused on specific verticals. Groundsensing (locating wells), Tachyus (extracting oil and gas), and Aptomar (spill safety) make sensor networks for oil and gas production. And Skycatch employs UAVs to capture data for the rendering of construction sites in 3D. Network Infrastructure & Sensor Developers Companies here are are building out the networks and developing the physical sensors that will undergird the IIoT as a whole. Samsara and DorsaVi develop industrial-grade sensors for a variety of applications including fleet management, machines, energy, and industrial wearables. Others like SigFox have built out the wireless networking for the IIoT. Utilities & Smart Grid Startups in this area develop tech that enables more efficient distribution of electricity, gas and water, and often 10 market to utility companies. Trilliant, Tendril, and BluePillar are smart-meter enabled solutions for utilities and large enterprises to manage usage and reporting. Cloud Platforms Cloud vendors here commonly market themselves as platforms-as-a-service (PaaS) companies that allow other IoT and IIoT companies to manage and maintain their device networks. Meshify and TempoIQ are examples here. Big Data Analytics & Machine Learning SaaS Big data software-as-a-service companies, or machine learning technology, allows companies to find insights and derive predictive analytics such as when machines will need maintenance. Transportation & Fleet Startups in this category are changing the landscape for connected vehicle fleets. Telogis and Greenroad, for example, develop fleet-tracking platforms using telematics data from large trucks. Others like Metromile are changing fleet insurance by using connected hardware to prorate insurance by mileage, a technology that is already being deployed to insure Uber drivers. IIoT Cybersecurity This category includes startups that are focusing on the large task of securing connected industrial IoT applications from cyberattack. The IIoT has already suffered serious hacks; a German steel mill suffered "massive damages" after hackers accessed a blast furnace that workers could not properly shut down. Bastille is one of several startups in the space.

As we've previously discussed in analyses of startups unbundling Procter & Gamble, unbundling the bank, or even unbundling PetSmart, emerging companies often focus on tackling specific categories or verticals, rather While self-driving tech has received the lion's share of media attention, a host of less-heralded startups are targeting specific pieces of automotive infrastructure or components. MAY 26, 2016 26 than attacking incumbents broadly (hence the term "unbundling"). Using CB Insights data, we identified a host of private startups that are working not only in self-driving tech and automated driver assistance but also to improve different services and products associated with the auto industry. These range from high-profile autonomous driving startups like comma.ai, backed by Andreessen Horowitz, to companies focused on enhancing more traditional elements, like auto repair and tire technology. Tech giants like Apple and major automakers like GM are also scrambling to secure ties to adjacent verticals, most notably the ride-hailing industry, but ride-hailing and car-sharing are not included in the infographic below. In March, General Motors put its stake in the ground in the realm of driving tech startups with its acquisition of Cruise Automation. Cruise had raised just $18.8M, but GM valued the company at over $1B. Media and investor interest in startups working on self-driving or ADAS (advanced driver assistance systems) tech has since exploded, with companies like comma.ai, Nauto, nuTonomy, and others garnering headlines and raising funding. While self-driving tech which is included in the infographic above receives the lion's share of media attention, a host of less-heralded startups are targeting specific pieces of automotive infrastructure or components. For example, companies including Quanergy, LeddarTech, and TriLumina are seeking to capitalize on the self-driving revolution by dramatically lowering the cost of expensive LiDAR sensors. Startups such as Veniam and Savari are developing vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-anything (V2X) communications, another autonomous- adjacent technology field. With increasing automotive connectivity seemingly inevitable, vehicle cybersecurity has also begun to emerge as a focus, with newer players like Karamba Security joining others such as Argus Cyber Security.
