Gaining Momentum

Alpine Media Technology is a verified, VC-backed company (est. 2014) providing digital signage and app solutions for the ski industry (e.g., Winter Park, Steamboat). External search confirms they manage over 2,000 connected displays (LiftDigital) and reach ~10% of the US ski market, demonstrating strong B2B traction and real-world utility in a high-value niche. However, the project submission itself was of extremely low quality, making exaggerated claims ('reach: everyone', 'traction: most people') and lacking data. The final score rewards the actual business metrics identified via search but applies significant penalties to Audience Reach and Response Quality due to the poor input.
