Vantage Robotics is a technology company that makes amazing aerial videos easy for commercial operations over people. The company has created a massively differentiated flying camera to compete in the $7 B camera drone market by solving the ease of use problem. Vantage's first product, Snap, has generated over $1 M in pre-sales and achieved a landmark FAA waiver for commercial use near people with CNN. Apple, Amazon, and the largest drone distributor in the US are all interested in selling Snap, with combined forecasted sales of over $100 M annually. Investors include Andy von Flotow, one of the most successful drone entrepreneurs in the US, Bill Tai, Blake Krikorian, CrunchFund, Ruvento, and Accelerator Ventures. Vantage began shipping Snap in Q2 17 to rave reviews.

Dia has invented an electrochemical sensor that can measure a wide variety of chemical biomarkers non-invasively in saliva or sweat. The data is sent via Bluetooth to an app on the user’s smartphone and analyzed in real-time. From the app, it can be securely sent to a third party. To date, we have measured hormones, electrolytes, neurotransmitters and metabolites. At DIA, we let the biology dictate which analyte we put on which platform – our wearable arm sleeve for sweat or our table-top device for saliva – because some biomarkers, such as cortisol fluctuate throughout the day and need to be monitored through a wearable sensor, while others, such as creatinine are more suitable to a daily saliva test.

Epicore Biosystems develops a proprietary wearable microfluidic platform that is ‘skin-like’ and capable of analyzing small droplets of sweat for proteomics, inflammatory markers, hydration, and health biomarkers to enable personalized management of health, performance ,and nutrition. Epicore's wearable sensing technology is based on over two decades of microfluidics and soft materials research by Prof. John Rogers and Dr. Roozbeh Ghaffari at Northwestern University's Querrey-Simpson Institute for Bioelectronics.

Eonix has created the first semi-autonomous materials R&D system, ATLAS-system, that drastically reduces the time and cost to design new materials for lithium ion batteries. This breakthrough process shrinks product development cycles from years to months. Eonix's unique ATLAS-system affords us the opportunity to rapidly design drop-in compatible electrolyte solutions that address the specific market barriers EVs, grid storage, and hybrid defense systems to drive clean tech adoption.

krtkl (“critical”) provides high-reliability hardware and software solutions for ‘hard’ real-time applications in the robotics, sensing, and space industries. Its products are used to implement edge-based artificial intelligence, sensor fusion, computer vision, video processing and networking, industrial control, mechatronics and automation, and wireless communications. krtkl’s mission is to build a smarter, more connected world by democratizing access to advanced technology. The company’s products have been deployed in thousands of mission-critical commercial and defense systems with demanding performance requirements and size, weight, and power (SWaP) constraints. The company was founded in 2014 and is headquartered in San Francisco, California.

Virtual Incision is a pioneer in in vivo mini-robot surgery, focusing on minimally-invasive procedures for colorectal conditions, including cancer, diverticulitis, and Crohn's disease. With nearly 400,000 colectomies performed annually in the U.S., the company aims to transform this landscape, as two-thirds of these surgeries are still done through large incisions. By introducing a mini-robot inserted via a small umbilical incision, Virtual Incision allows surgeons to manipulate the robot arms from a nearby console, facilitating the use of familiar laparoscopic tools and enhancing surgical capabilities. This innovative approach not only simplifies the surgical process but also seeks to improve clinical outcomes and reduce healthcare costs. With over 60 patents and extensive preclinical testing, Virtual Incision is currently pursuing $15 million in Series B financing to advance its technology toward First-in-Man trials and regulatory submissions.
