Meet MDV Retail Solutions, Avant.Dev & UzairaAdvisory: HackerNoon Startups of the Week

Welcome to HackerNoon Startups of the Week! Each week, the HackerNoon team showcases a list of startups from our Startups of The Year database. All these startups have been nominated as one of the best in their respective category or region.

This week, we’re pleased to bring you MDV Retail Solutions, Avant.Dev, and UzairaAdvisory!

Meet the Startups of the Week

MDV Retail Solutions

When global consumer electronic brands need help, there is only one place they can turn to: MDV Retail Solutions. They offer commercial representation services in Latin America, such as helping with marketing and sales operations and bringing up ROI. They also have a strict core value guide that they follow, which includes integrity and honesty.

MDV Retail Solutions was nominated for Startup of the Year in Hollywood, FL, and is also running in the Consumer Goods category.

Avant.Dev

Art and technology go together like peanut butter and chocolate, but a lot of people can’t seem to see that. But there is one startup trying to change people’s minds: Avant.Dev. This startup has given a platform to up-and-coming artists focusing on art + technology for almost 5 years now. Just recently, they hosted an event titled “Metamundi: Visions, Prisms & Paradigms of the Interior” that focused on the metaverse.

Avant.Dev was not only nominated for Startup of the Year in Mexico City, Mexico, but was also nominated in the following categories: Writing and Editing, Blogging, and Creative Agency.

UzairaAdvisory

Everyone needs help, even businesses. That’s where business advisory firms such as UzairaAdvisory come into play. They help with strategy and implementation, services and solutions, and any general problems businesses might face. They’ve been doing this since 2021 and have helped businesses achieve their short-term and long-term goals.

It is currently nominated for Startup of the Year in India and is also nominated in the Messaging and Communications, IT Services, and Blogging categories.

Featured Interview of the Week

If you have a startup nominated in any category, you can publish an interview for free where you can talk about your business, what it does, and why people should know about it and vote for it. But first, you have to create a business page on HackerNoon. With this, you can create and edit your own Evergreen Tech Company News Page, plus be included in our Tech Companies ranking.

Once you’re done creating your business page, you can choose an interview template to fill out where you can boast about your startup.

The interview we’ll showcase today is the Business interview template. Using this template, describe your startup and what sets it apart from others in the business/finance sector. Not only that, tell the readers about your proudest achievements, the lessons you and your team have learned along the way, and your startup’s future plans.

UzairaAdvisory filled out an interview template, and we’re glad they did because we got to learn so much about this unique startup. Here’s a quote from that interview:

When we received the unexpected email notifying us of our nomination as Startup of the Year 2024 in three categories—among 150,000 startups across over 4,200 cities and six continents—we were thrilled and honored. We decided to participate in HackerNoon’s Startups of The Year event because it presents a unique opportunity that resonates with our core values. Striving to win is in our DNA, and this competition allows us to challenge ourselves on a global stage.
