GOLeafe
GOLeafe has put themselves at the forefront of the graphene market, by solving the two biggest problems the market has - price and scalability. Their team of materials scientists and chemical engineers do this through a revolutionary patent-pending production method that uses solely organic input materials which eliminates the need for harsh chemicals and high-energy processing equipment, thus making it both more cost-efficient and environmentally friendly. A scale-up of their unique production method will allow for use of their graphene as a platform technology to commercialize various graphene-based products at competitive pricing to existing technologies. The GOLeafe team has not only developed a method of producing graphene at significantly lower cost than other methods, they also produce a number of graphene derivatives, including doped and reduced graphene oxide.
Invictis Technologies
We build automatic intravenous injection devices. Needlestick injuries cost the United States healthcare sector over three billion dollars a year and 25% of venipuncture procedures are unsuccessful on the first attempt. Current technologies are large, stationary, and cannot be used on oneself. Our device utilizes state of the art vertical injection technology (VIT) that allows our devices to be small, portable, accurate and eliminate the need for an additional nurse or healthcare professional to assist with the injection. Our device will drastically increase the efficiency of medical care in hospital, military, emergency response, and disaster relief settings.
JAQ Energy LLC
JAQ Energy LLC is an early-stage start-up business that focuses on developing energy and power electronic systems technologies with a mission to address and solve energy availability related anxiety and security. The startup company is currently developing a Wirelessly Enabled and Distributed Energy Storage (WEDES) System for transportation electrification (such as EVs, HEVs, LEVs, and RVs) among other applications. The WEDES system consists of several battery modules that collaboratively communicate both power and information to the loads they power without wired connections for improved exchangeability/handling and safety, and eliminates or significantly reduce range anxiety associated with electric vehicles. JAQ Energy LLC received NSF STTR Phase I award in 2019.
