iRise | Silver Sponsor

iRise is the world’s leading provider of enterprise visualization software for business applications. Visualization has become a critical competitive advantage for businesses to more effectively communicate their needs to technology teams, giving everyone involved the ability to experience and interact with visual prototypes that look and behave like final coded apps—long before they are built.
Companies of all sizes like General Motors, UPS, FedEx, Haworth, Manpower, M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, and hundreds of others use iRise to “test drive” their applications before coding, accelerating time to market, improving customer experience, and driving costs down. Headquartered in El Segundo, California, iRise is backed by Morgan Stanley Venture Partners, and Deutsche Bank, and has sales offices across North America and in London.
