JDoodle is an Australian software development company creating an ecosystem of programming tools to turbocharge the software development industry. With a strong focus on education, recruitment and innovation, JDoodle empowers developers worldwide to build the technology of tomorrow. For students, JDoodle provides a zero-setup code environment for learning how to code. Students can write working code directly within their browser without installing software and libraries locally. For educators, JDoodle democratises access to all the tools necessary to teach the next generation of developers how to code, and to assess their ability and progress — all through a single platform For software developers, JDoodle is the new go-to resource for building and deploying applications in the cloud. JDoodle unifies the traditionally siloed programming toolset into a single platform offering over 75 computer languages and database access — making developers significantly more efficient so businesses can save time and money. Over 800,000+ developers around the world are already using JDoodle, and it has garnered recognition from prestigious institutions such as the University of Kansas and Link Education Alliance in the EU.

Swoop Aero was founded in 2017 to transform how the world moves, by making access to the skies seamless. We integrate drone logistics into the first and last mile of the supply chain to transform its strength and agility. Where we don’t deliver that service ourselves, we provide our platform selectively to organisations across the globe to further the reach of our impact.

Founded in 2017 by Chris Thompson and Dan Adams, Amber gives customers dynamic power prices that change depending on the real wholesale value of energy. Customers can pay less by charging your battery when energy is greener and cheaper as well as earn more by exporting when prices increase. Combined with Ambers smart tech, solar and battery owners have the power to supercharge their savings, take control of their battery and make their energy work harder for them. Amber is backed by some of Australia’s best accelerators and investors, including EnergyLab (Australia’s leading energy accelerator) and Startmate (Australia’s leading tech accelerator). Investors include Blackbird, Square Peg, Main Sequence, Commonwealth Bank and Black Sheep Capital. The company has won Startup Vic’s Impact Pitch Night, for the best startup focused on making a positive social impact and been named Victorian Start-up of the Year.

Inventia Life Science is making advanced cell models easy for high impact discovery. The company’s strong foundation of fundamental research has led to the development of proprietary solutions to generate high-quality advanced cell models that are reproducible and highly consistent. Built by scientists for scientists, our intuitive solutions integrate seamlessly with existing workflows, whereas our wide range of biofunctional synthetic matrices and application-driven models make your desired assays possible.

Morse Micro is a fast-growing fabless semiconductor company developing Wi-Fi HaLow solutions for the Internet of Things (IoT) market that can reach 10x the range of conventional Wi-Fi technology and last many years on a single battery. The company was founded by Wi-Fi pioneers and innovators, Michael De Nil and Andrew Terry, joined by the original Wi-Fi inventor Prof. Neil Weste and wireless industry veterans, whose teams designed Wi-Fi chips into billions of smartphones. Headquartered in Australia with offices in China, India and the U.S., Morse Micro’s strong and diverse system team, portfolio of IP and patents, enables Wi-Fi HaLow connectivity across the complete IoT ecosystem, from surveillance systems and access control to industrial automation and mobile devices, allowing connected devices to reach farther.

Indee Labs is a biotechnology startup backed by SOSV, Y Combinator, Social Capital and Founders Fund. The team at Indee Labs develops and markets Hydropore for more effective engineered cell therapies. Indee Lab’s non-viral delivery platform, Hydropore, is a robust solution that overcomes the limitations and costs of electroporation, viral transduction, and other non-viral transfection methods. Hydropore is being developed in collaboration with 3 of the top 10 pharmaceutical companies, various biotechs and leading research institutions including UC San Francisco, Stanford, Medical University of South Carolina, the National Cancer Institute and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease among others.
