EnKoat, founded in 2019 and based in Casa Grande, Arizona, focuses on creating sustainable solutions for the construction industry to address climate change. The company has developed an active insulation coating that aims to lower cooling costs in both residential and commercial buildings. This innovative coating employs a proprietary blend of thermal regulating additives designed to minimize heat transfer through convection, conduction, and solar radiation. By implementing EnKoat's technology, clients can achieve significant cost savings and reduce their overall energy consumption.

Arizona State University creates an institution that is committed to excellence, access and impact. ASU measures itself by those it includes, not by those it excludes. ASU pursues research that contributes to the public good, and ASU assumes major responsibility for the economic, social and cultural vitality of the communities that surround it.

A significantly high volume of non-recyclable waste is being generated every day, either during the cleaning process, or due to ever damaging infrastructure. For example, the amounts of chlorinated pesticides being used for cleaning surfaces is causing serious corrosion damages or the amount deicing fluid being used to keep the airplanes flying during freezing conditions. Now imagine having a bottle filled with transparent liquid that we can spray on surfaces and that transforms into a smart, solid, glass. This invisible coated surface won’t corrode, restores, can’t be scratched, won’t get dirty, remains germs free and can be seen with black light. Remember, 80% germs spreads through touching the infected surface and we can provide 99.9% protection. We are global experts in advanced coatings development and manufacturing. We offer a globally patented, non-toxic, ready to use coating that is registered as medical device with FDA. Coating is offered as easy to use product, tested and validated by independent agencies. Single application of this thin coating could protect surfaces for more than six months. We are targeting $25 billion protective coatings market. Products have been sold to more than 100 major companies operating in aerospace, automotive, healthcare, and public sectors.

Operator of a precision medicine company intended to develop a microfluidic platform. The company's platform creates a comprehensive, multi-omic, and spatial profile of tissue to get a complete and informed understanding of the patient's cancer so they can be matched with relevant therapies and recommended courses of action that prevent acquired drug resistance, enabling clinicians and drug developers to advance the implementation of precision medicine for cancer treatment.

Arbsource is developing wastewater treatment systems for the food & beverage industry, cutting painfully expensive water and power bills with biotechnology.

Breezing is a company focused on developing innovative technology for health management and disease prevention through early detection. It has introduced a mobile metabolism tracker, the first of its kind, which measures resting energy expenditure and respiratory exchange ratio to assess metabolic rates. The device is user-friendly, requiring no nose clips and featuring automatic calibration, making it accessible for a wide range of users. By analyzing oxygen and carbon dioxide levels, the tracker enables fitness enthusiasts to create personalized diet and exercise plans, thereby enhancing their training and overall health. Breezing's contributions to the field have garnered attention from notable media outlets, reflecting its commitment to advancing health technology.
