We are very pleased to announce the closing of our US$6.6M seed investment round. Voyager Ventures and TOMORROW (part of Visionaries Club) led the round, with participation from Climate Club. SirenOpt’s investors also include Union Labs Ventures, Skydeck Fund (the investment team from Berkeley SkyDeck) Wireframe Ventures, Impact Science Ventures, Access Industries, Courtyard Ventures, and Climate Capital. SirenOpt will use this new investment to accelerate product development, deliver commercial products to market, scale up commercial operations, and grow our team to support those objectives. SirenOpt’s non-destructive, real-time manufacturing intelligence platform improves factory efficiency for semiconductors, batteries, turbine blades and many other technologies essential to the green transition. Our ability to deliver real-time insights using cold atmospheric plasma and machine learning technologies was first developed by our co-founders Jared O'Leary, Ali Mesbah and Joel Paulson at the Mesbah Lab at the University of California, Berkeley. We are also supported by the startup accelerator programs run by Activate, Berkeley SkyDeck and Cyclotron Road (the latter part of the Berkeley Lab). Our platform will transform materials manufacturing for advanced coatings, thin film materials and nano-scale materials by shedding new light on blind spots, reducing waste, and improving factory ROI. For all the details including statements by SirenOpt CEO Jared O'Leary, Sarah Sclarsic, Founding Partner of Voyager Ventures, and Sebastian Pollok, Founding Partner of TOMORROW, please see the full announcement on our recently updated website: https://lnkd.in/gh_cqji3 You can also read more about SirenOpt on Axios: https://lnkd.in/gB47Fd4K Thanks to our investors for believing in us, and thanks as well to all the customers and collaborators who helped us get to this point.

About us
SirenOpt is accelerating sustainable and smart manufacturing of advanced materials by delivering a manufacturing intelligence platform that uses intelligent characterization and real-time decision-making to drive the creation of innovative, high-performance products that fuel the advancement of society. SirenOpt is pioneering a paradigm shift in materials manufacturing intelligence by leveraging cold atmospheric plasma, machine learning and predictive analytics to non-destructively create a uniquely distinctive, multifaceted material fingerprint in real-time. SirenOpt transforms measurement blind spots into rich multi-layered material insights, which enable intelligent performance-centric decision-making. SirenOpt thus accelerates R&D and process optimization, enhances product performance, and delivers higher production quality to maximize value in both in-line and off-line applications. SirenOpt’s manufacturing intelligence platform has demonstrated use cases across battery, aerospace, semiconductor, electronic and many other advanced manufacturing segments in both inline production and offline tool deployments. SirenOpt was founded in 2022 as a spin-out from the UC Berkeley Chemical Engineering Department. SirenOpt is supported by the UC Berkeley Skydeck, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Cyclotron Road and Activate science-driven startup accelerator programs.
