The next decade will bring exponential advances in IoT, Wearables, Smart Buildings and Vehicles, Augmented and Virtual Reality, and Medical Devices. All of these sectors rely on solving new challenges - low cost displays with high pixel density, embedded sensors, extreme miniaturization, transparent and flexible displays, and lighter weight, lower power circuitry. Terecircuits has developed novel circuit fabrication and assembly techniques that allow these products to be built at scale, 100x faster and with 10x greater accuracy than is achievable with todays best practices. Even more promising, the Terecircuits process accomplishes this at half the cost of existing solutions.

Founded in 2012, SunRay Scientific develops and manufactures innovative electronic conductive and non-conductive materials. SunRay has developed a family of offerings to include novel conductive adhesives, printable conductive inks, and insulating encapsulant solutions for advanced electronic packaging across Printed Electronics and Semiconductor Packaging.
SunRay’s patented ZTACH® ACE electrical interconnect technology is designed to deliver cost effective miniaturization and enhanced performance while utilizing existing manufacturing infrastructure. The simplicity of SunRay’s technology lowers production costs while speeding up production time.
ZTACH® ACE is a Z-axis Anisotropic Conductive Epoxy consisting of a polymer matrix solution incorporating randomly distributed ferromagnetic particles. Primary benefits of ZTACH® ACE include: superior adhesion, high density interconnects, low-temperature cure, fine pitch capability, and no pressure assembly. Compared to conventional electronic interconnects, ZTACH® ACE exhibits the ability to reduce total manufacturing costs based on the elimination of process steps, improved yield, enhanced reliability/performance, and lower setup costs. This cost benefit combined with key technology differentiators has generated significant customer traction from numerous Fortune 500 companies.
SunRay’s ZTACH® ACE Anisotropic Conductive Epoxy and ZMAG™ Magnetic Pallet system enable the future of printed electronics for use in emerging applications like: Flexible Wearables (smart labels, diagnostic patches, e-textiles); Electronic Micro-assembly (endoscopic diagnostic pill, toll tags, RFID tags);semiconductor packaging within Consumer Products (smart phone/computer OLED displays and LED lighting products); and X-Ray imaging (e.g., medical, scanners and airport security screening devices). Our innovative conductive silver inks enable improved reliability through a proprietary technology that blocks silver migration.

Vulnerability assessment scanners are adept at finding security flaws, but they leave professionals with chaotic lists of vulnerabilities to sift through. With a mixture of spreadsheets and crossed fingers, cyberdefenders struggle to determine what to fix first. This results in wasted time and little progress made on their overall risk exposure.
NopSec has been recognized by both Gartner and Forrester for its whole-brain approach to vulnerability prioritization. We’ve infused our years of offensive security expertise into a patented algorithm that prioritizes vulnerabilities for remediation based on each company’s unique environment. As a result, companies spend less time fixing flaws and proactively improve their risk exposure by scalably addressing what matters most to them.

The future of infectious disease diagnostics starts at Day Zero. By using whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and our proprietary enabling technologies, Day Zero is creating a new class of sequencing-based in-vitro diagnostics that generates clinically actionable data at scale. Our technologies include novel sample preparation methods enabling unprecedented ultra-high enrichment of pathogen DNA for sequencing directly from clinical samples, machine learning algorithms that provide clinically actionable diagnostic results, and a world-class database of WGS and drug efficacy profiles. Day Zero Diagnostics is on a mission to transform the way infectious disease diagnostics are performed by generating the stream of real-time sequencing data required to change how we track, manage and combat infectious diseases.
With an enormous unmet clinical and economic need, we are targeting bloodstream infections and sepsis for our first application. The life expectancy of a patient with septic shock is 24 hours without fast effective antibiotic treatment. However, even when successful, current diagnostics take 2-5 days to identify the pathogen AND provide its antibiotic susceptibility profile. The lack of rapid, accurate, and comprehensive diagnostics, forces physicians to “carpet bomb” patients with severe infections with powerful, yet toxic, broad-spectrum antibiotics, which is not only ineffective in many cases but can also lead to significant morbidity and mortality. Day Zero delivers a complete diagnosis, including both the species and antibiotic resistance profile, in hours vs. days, enabling the physician to use a targeted treatment on day zero of hospital admission and resulting in better patient outcomes and cost savings.
