For example, PrecisionTerra, founded by EIR Maithreyi Gopalakrishnan, is a software solution that improves the signal strength of GNSS receivers in urban environments. The company has raised over $130,000 and was accepted to the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) NSIN Vector accelerator. Green Steel Environmental, founded by EIRs Jonathan Teaford and Jon Jonis, is developing sustainable additives to revolutionize the wastewater recovery industry. The company has raised over $350,000 and will exhibit at the Biogas Americas trade show in Savannah, GA, in October.&nbsp;</p><p>Now in its second year, over 114 entrepreneurs applied to Embark and explored a curated portfolio of more than 50 technologies from various scientific and engineering fields, including biotechnology, quantum science, advanced materials and aerospace. The Venture Partners team then worked closely with the entrepreneurs and inventors to find the right matches and the greatest opportunities for impact.</p><p>Selected applicants went through a rigorous 8-week program where they learned about the technologies for the first time, collaborated with the researchers, began customer discovery and pitched their business ideas in the final EIR selection process. 鈥淲e were impressed with all of these entrepreneurs and how much progress they made to get to this point,鈥 said Amy Dodenhoff, director of venture development at Venture Partners and co-leader of Embark. 鈥淲e are excited to see what the new EIRs can do over the next six months with their new companies.鈥</p><p>The selected entrepreneurs鈥攆ounding ten new startups on university-owned technologies鈥攚ill launch their companies with an option agreement from the university and receive funding for technology development plus a six-month part-time salary to jumpstart their ventures.</p><p>With funding from 精品SM在线影片, the program aims to increase diversity in the startup community by supporting individuals who may not have the financial means to pursue entrepreneurship without salary support.</p><p>Embark鈥檚 emphasis on matching entrepreneurs with groundbreaking innovations holds the potential to unleash the full impact of 精品SM在线影片鈥檚 research into the world.</p><p>Information about the 2025 Embark Showcase for investors and the business community is expected in January 2025. <a href="/venturepartners/node/2212" rel="nofollow"><strong>Sign Up for Updates</strong></a></p></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="ucb-article-content ucb-striped-content"> <div class="container"> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--article-content paragraph--view-mode--default"> <div class="ucb-article-text" itemprop="articleBody"> <div><div><div><h2><span>2024 Embark Entrepreneurs in Residence</span></h2></div><div><div><div><div><h3><strong>Aatxe Therapeutics</strong></h3> <div class="align-right image_style-square_thumbnail_image_style"> <div class="imageMediaStyle square_thumbnail_image_style"> <img loading="lazy" src="/venturepartners/sites/default/files/styles/square_thumbnail_image_style/public/callout/embark_alec_and_makenna_091224.png?h=726fcbb6&amp;itok=QwAKxeEL" width="100" height="100" alt="Makenna Morck and Alec Santiago"> </div> </div> <p><span><strong>Embark Entrepreneurs in Residence (EIR): </strong></span><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/makenna-morck" rel="nofollow"><strong>Makenna Morck</strong></a><strong>&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/alecsantiago" rel="nofollow"><i class="fa-brands fa-linkedin">&nbsp;</i></a><strong>&nbsp;(Alum: 精品SM在线影片 </strong><a href="/biochemistry/" rel="nofollow"><strong>Biochemistry</strong></a><strong>) and </strong><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/alecsantiago" rel="nofollow"><strong>Alec Santiago&nbsp;</strong><i class="fa-brands fa-linkedin">&nbsp;</i></a><br><span><strong>Principal Investigator (PI): Michael Stowell (</strong></span><a href="/mcdb/michael-stowell" rel="nofollow"><strong>精品SM在线影片 Molecular, Cellular &amp; Developmental Biology</strong></a><strong>)</strong></p><p><span>Aatxe Therapeutics is a cyclic peptide platform that maximizes structural adaptability to improve cell penetrance, accessing and targeting challenging proteins.
