Top Information Technology Startups in 2026

Carbon is reinventing how products are designed, engineered, made & delivered. Carbon’s Digital Manufacturing platform enables repeatable production of end-use parts with industrial grade materials and exceptional surface finish. Whether you’re making one or a million. Making the impossible possible. Carbon is a 3D printing (late stage, series E) startup in Redwood City, Ca. that creates the software, hardware and materials to enable production of groundbreaking parts — parts that can't be made any other way. The best example is Carbon's partnership with Adidas. Adidas had been interested in 3D printing shoes for years but could not find a technology that was good enough. With Carbon, Adidas finally could design and produce a lattice-based midsole that not only performs well but opens the door for a future of personalized shoes, and they're heading toward making millions of them.

Amazingly, 3 out of 5 enterprise applications are never assessed for critical vulnerabilities such as SQL injection. Why? Because the traditional on-premises approach to application security doesn’t cut it anymore. It’s complex and manually-intensive – and difficult to scale. Veracode offers a fundamentally different approach. Our cloud-based service was purpose-built with the speed and scale required to reduce application-layer risk, enterprise-wide. Across web, mobile and third-party apps. And across the entire application lifecycle, from code development to IT operations. As organizations increasingly rely on web, mobile and cloud applications to drive their businesses, the threat surface exposed to cyberattackers has dramatically expanded. Our vision is to secure the world’s software. Our automated cloud-based service enables the rapid detection and remediation of critical vulnerabilities in all your applications – not just a small subset of them.
