Nicholas Rossolillo (Corsair Gaming): Most in-the-know gaming enthusiasts will know this company as a hardware accessory and peripherals maker -- everything from PC components to headsets to lighting. The company completed its IPO in September 2020 and is up nearly 150% since its public debut. It's gotten a boost this year as social distancing and remote work have created some extra time at home for gamers, and a new upgrade cycle hastened by new NVIDIA graphics cards and consoles could keep Corsair flying high in 2021.
