It develops high-yield pongamia cultivars and proprietary bean processing to produce sustainable oil and protein ingredients for food, energy, and agricultural markets. Through a tree cultivation platform, the company domesticates and scales pongamia orchards, enabling producers to grow more with fewer inputs and less land while restoring farmland to productive use.

Hazel Technologies develops and produces postharvest technologies that extend the shelf life of fresh produce. The company’s core product is a carton insert that releases ethylene inhibitors, such as 1‑MCP, to slow respiration and aging in fruits and vegetables, thereby reducing spoilage and waste. In addition to its hardware, Hazel offers horticultural consulting and supply‑chain solutions that help growers, shippers, and retailers optimize storage conditions and inventory management. Founded in 2015, the company is headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, with an additional site in Salinas, California. Its technologies have been validated by academic research and supported by USDA funding, positioning Hazel as a key player in improving the efficiency and sustainability of the fresh‑produce supply chain.

Founded in 2007, Ocean Rainforest cultivates seaweed on open ocean installations. It offers a range of premium, fully traceable seaweed products primarily for food and cosmetic producers, rich in beneficial nutrients like proteins, antioxidants, minerals, and polyunsaturated fatty acids.

Mori, formerly known as Overlook Research, is a company that develops a natural biopolymer coating designed to extend the shelf life of perishable foods. Founded in 2016 and headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, Mori's innovative coating is made from proteins extracted from natural silk using salt and water. This protective layer helps slow the spoiling process of various food items, including fruits, vegetables, meat, and seafood, thereby reducing food waste. By focusing on sustainable and economical solutions, Mori aims to transform the food supply and enhance the efficiency of the food, agriculture, and packaging industries.

Founded in 2013, Quidnet Energy develops grid-scale energy storage systems using a unique hydroelectric technology. The company stores excess renewable energy by pumping water under pressure into underground geological reservoirs and releases it to drive hydroelectric turbines when needed. This process enables seamless integration with existing electricity-generating facilities at a lower cost than lithium-ion batteries.
