Rick Cohen, Chairman and CEO of Symbotic Inc. (Nasdaq: SYM) has been named to the Tech Power Players 50, a list of the most influential – and interesting – people in the New England technology scene, as ranked by the Globe’s business journalists and an external advisory committee.

The Tech Power Players 50 recognizes leaders in software, venture capital, energy, and beyond. The list examines their career impact on technology and business, taking into account their tech-specific contributions and innovations that have kept the sector vibrant in a challenging economic climate.

The advisory committee and the Globe’s newsroom also considered each leader’s activity in the Massachusetts tech community and the degree to which they are engaging with local efforts to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion.

“Massachusetts is a global leader in technology, and we have seen incredible innovation coming from our region,” said Greg Huang, the Globe’s Business and Tech editor. “Ultimately, we wanted the list to tell a story about the local scene and where it is headed, and so the people we selected show the deep roots of our tech community and the new wave of thinkers who will continue to make our region a hub for innovation.”
