A University of Texas at Dallas researcher, UTDesign and an alum who founded a construction management software company won Tech Titans awards at a September gala. The honorees were among 14 individuals, companies and organizations recognized by Tech Titans, a North Texas technology association. “The Tech Titans Technology Inventor award recognizes a decade of relentless dedication in developing the first perspiration-based wearable to track disease activity and human physiology in real time,” said Prasad, a Cecil H. and Ida Green Professor in Systems Biology Science. UTDesign programs include the UTDesign Makerspace, Engineering Projects in Community Service, UTDesign Capstone programs for undergraduate and master’s students, and StartUp Challenge. “It’s an incredible honor to be recognized for the Emerging Company CEO award by Tech Titans, and I’m proud to be among such talented leaders in North Texas,” Fortenberry said.
