What a lovely surprise to find out that The Toronto Star did a great write up of the MaRS Discovery District Health Summit women's health panel I was on along with Jocelyn Wessels, Ph.D. of Afynia Laboratories (IBNY 07), Danielle Brewin Graham and moderated Brittany Barreto, Ph.D. It was a packed audience and really proud to have been able to highlight the work we do in this space. Also it wouldn't be me if I didn't plug the fact that as always we need to increase funding into scientific research if we ever want to see more meaningful tools and technologies in women's health. https://lnkd.in/eQTP-KJp

From precision agriculture to recycling and renewable energy maintenance, the intersection between robotics and climate technology is more prevalent than it has ever been. Such an inspiring conversation at this year's Robotics Invest featuring Abe Murray (AlleyCorp), Rebecca Hu (Glacier), Duncan Turner (SOSV) and Frank Kjerstein (REBLADE). This is just the beginning of robotics creating a more sustainable future.

I tasted cultured meat made using light instead of growth factors and got to spend time with the *very* smart founders of Prolific Machines, Inc. Deniz Kent, PhD Declan Jones and Max Huisman. I'll be linking to a PDF of my story for The Information in my next newsletter, which you can sign up for here: https://lnkd.in/gsGU4aSW cc Nicki Heverling Briggs, MS, RDN Eric Schulze, PhD

After four years working behind the scenes, today Prolific Machines unveils our first-of-its-kind biotechnology platform to the world. Prolific is the first to use light — safe and abundant — to produce everyday essentials, from nutritional proteins and lifesaving drugs to cultivated meat. Our photomolecular biology platform delivers unprecedented control, precisely guiding cellular behavior when and where it matters most. This technology debut is coupled with the close of our milestone $55M Series B1 fundraise, led by Ki Tua Fund CVC of Fonterra Co-operative Group. We could not be more grateful to partner with Ki Tua Fund on this journey and for the continued support of our long-time investors Breakthrough Energy Cooper Rinzler Mayfield Fund Arvind Gupta IndieBio Po Bronson SOSV Continental Grain Company Shorewind Capital Darco Capital In-Q-Tel (IQT) Robert Downey Jr.'s FootPrint Coalition Matthew Katz and many more. This announcement marks our next chapter as a commercial organization. We are excited to unveil partnerships with industry leaders in cellular agriculture, pharmaceuticals, nutritional proteins, and beyond. Stay tuned for details in the coming months, and get in touch at partners@prolific-machines.com if you're interested in co-developing the future of biology with us. A huge thank you to our amazing team for making today a reality and helping us illuminate biology’s limitless potential for a healthier, more sustainable tomorrow.

What a great way to start #NYTechWeek - an absolutely packed house for the launch of The Insider Guide to NY for Climate Tech Founders. In New York City alone over the last four years, $3.5B has been invested in climate tech and nearly 160 climate startups have received venture capital funding!! We recognize that there is so much more work to be done but our hope is that this guidebook is the first step that founders reach for when wanting to know the most critical resources, programs, funds, etc. to help build their #climatetech companies right here in New York. A massive thanks to Beatriz Franco, Jory Segal, Laura Fox, Daria Siegel, Madeline Behr, Stefan Dienstag for co-creating so much of this and to anyone who helped fill this out, THANK YOU! As this is an evolving and growing space, and you would like your organization to be on this list, let me know!
