Published with TheStreet, the Roundtable 100 ranks 100 publicly traded technology growth assets. Committee analysts score each asset on team, safety, value, innovation, and market dominance, with the average forming its power ranking.

On the other hand, Ambiq Micro (NYSE: AMBQ) secured a score of 63. The little-known chipmaker stood at No. 5 in the Roundtable 100, despite slipping four places this week.
