Soos Technology develops an incubation system designed to influence the sex development of poultry embryos. The system uses AI-driven software to monitor and control incubation conditions within a customized incubation cell and applies sound waves to the embryos, enabling genetic male chicks to become functional female layers capable of laying eggs. By enabling sex conversion during incubation, the technology aims to increase egg production capacity for the poultry industry and support global nutritional security.

The company operates autonomously on public roads since 2019 and supplies its Perception and Motion Planning L3 software stacks to automotive Tier-1 suppliers and OEMs worldwide.
OlfaGuard
Seed Round in 2016
OlfaGuard Ltd is a bio-nanotech company based in Haifa, Israel, focused on enhancing food safety through innovative technology. The company has developed an E-nose that utilizes an array of nanotech-based sensors specifically designed to detect pathogens, such as Salmonella and E. coli, on food. These sensors function by identifying microbial volatile organic compounds (MVOCs) associated with these pathogens. Currently in the research and development phase, OlfaGuard is leveraging technology derived from four patents licensed from the Technion and Professor Hossam Haick. The sensors are intended for single-use and provide results with high specificity in a matter of minutes, making it possible for users to identify foodborne pathogens without the need for professional personnel or laboratory settings, thus offering a cost-effective solution for food safety.
