STAGE, developed by SpinTech, is an advanced MRI imaging software platform that reduces brain scan time by 40%. The software provides enhanced visualization and quantification of scan images. STAGE automatically detects biomarkers critical to proper diagnosis of neurological conditions that cannot be seen with current MRI techniques (i.e. traumatic brain injury, dementia, Parkinson's, Multiple Sclerosis, and stroke). We're committed to bringing the future of imaging technology to every patient suffering from neurological disease with a cost effective, workflow-efficient software platform that improves patient outcomes and maximizes costly imaging equipment ROI. STAGE software is compatible with most manufacturers' existing equipment. Visit our website to learn more and set up a demo!

Pathware is a privately held MedTech company based in Denver, CO and with offices in Seattle, WA. The company is focused on developing hardware and software to bring digital pathology from the central lab to the point-of-care.

Massive amounts of data being created at the edge, uploading this data to the cloud for real-time analysis is neither financially nor technically feasible. Extracting meaning from this data is computationally intensive and expensive, limiting adoption of edge AI to a few high-value applications. After years of research by leaders in computer vision and machine learning we have developed technology that is two to three orders of magnitude more efficient than other high-accuracy deep learning systems. Our patent pending technology evolves the state of the art with a combination of optimization, sprinkled with unique insight and just a little magic. Video is our first application: the system is trained in the cloud by ingesting video where objects and activities of interest have been annotated. Learning is distilled into ultra-efficient software that runs on fixed, body-mounted and vehicle-mounted cameras. We can enable analytics on most professional IP video cameras with just a firmware update. Older cameras can be retrofitted with a low-power embedded processor, such as those from our partners NXP and Ambarella. Our software-only system gets smarter over time: edge cases (where the system is not very confident that it knows what is happening) are captured, uploaded to the cloud for analysis, and the learning distilled into ever smarter software. We work with more than just video: infrared, thermal, radar and lidar play important complimentary roles in helping to establish accurate, detailed situational awareness across a wide variety of environmental conditions. Each sensor detects, classifies and tracks multiple objects locally in real-time. This metadata is then push to the cloud, or a central ECU in the case of a vehicle, where it is fused to establish ground truth, detect behavior, track objects across multiple sensors, and identify anomalies.

Rally has created the platform and demand for thousands of bus trips across 40 states and provinces with its “bus rideshare." The app aggregates like-minded individuals going to events both small and large, from weddings and corporate outings to arena sports and music festivals. The technology crowdsources bus stops and crowdfunds buses to create on-demand trips. By generating new demand for buses with use-case innovations, Rally and their sister company, OurBus, convert billions of dollars spent on cars to shared buses. By doing so, they unlock the value of the industry’s idle vehicle capacity, which is a lost opportunity of $5B annually in the US alone and estimated at $35B globally. Having improved bus travel for millions of riders to date, Rally and OurBus united through an acquisition to create the leading technology company for mass mobility in the United States. The companies capture market share by meeting or surpassing the modern consumer’s expectations of easy online booking, customer-centric policies, high quality operators, and a technology-oriented approach to the entire customer journey. Rally and OurBus have established new consumer brands in busing built for the sharing economy. Together, they provide a single technology platform affecting the private bus industry’s 700M annual passenger trips. They empower the 3,000+ small businesses that comprise the US private bus industry. Rally and OurBus products are supported by a more efficient, combined bus operator network of small businesses, to whom they offer a fully operational SaaS infrastructure. They have made a direct impact on the private bus industry by helping operators increase revenues with automation and business model innovations. Now you can crowdfund bus travel to your favorite destinations at rally.co, or book your scheduled intercity ride at ourbus.com.
