Veev has been recognized for its groundbreaking contributions in manufacturing and technology.
HAYWARD, CA — Two Hayward-based companies have been named finalists for the 2025 East Bay Innovation Awards, an annual recognition program celebrating businesses that drive innovation in manufacturing, products, services, and technology.
Veev, a modular homebuilding company, was selected as a finalist in the Manufacturing category for its advanced approach to home construction. By using prefabrication, digital technology, and sustainable materials, Veev reduces build times, costs, and environmental impact while delivering high-quality, energy-efficient homes.
Endiatx, recognized in the Product or Technology category, developed PillBot™, a groundbreaking micro-robotic capsule designed for non-invasive medical diagnostics. The ingestible device uses cameras and sensors to navigate the gastrointestinal tract, providing real-time imaging and an alternative to traditional endoscopic procedures.
“Hayward is where the most innovative companies turn ideas into physical realities. Our business community isn’t just pushing boundaries—they’re redefining them,” said Paul Nguyen, Hayward’s Chief Economic Development Officer. “The East Bay EDA’s Innovation Awards highlight the revolutionary work happening in The Heart of the Bay and serve as a beacon for other entrepreneurs seeking a home near like minds.”
The East Bay Economic Development Alliance (East Bay EDA) selected 22 finalists from more than 100 nominations across four categories: Catalyst, Community Impact, Manufacturing, and Product or Technology. A panel of subject matter experts reviewed submissions to identify the most innovative and impactful companies in the region.
