OVNI Capital’s Post

As a young VC firm such as OVNI Capital, it can be harder to secure a spot on deals as founders can't be sure we'll be around in 5/10 years. But then we meet them and show them we are working twice as hard to support them before we can even invest. Our commitment extends to leveraging our network (150 LPs) to connect founders with key industry players, ensuring they have the support they need to thrive. That's why we are excited to share with you our fourth official deal, NcodiN, co-led by Elaia (Clément Vanden Driessche) and Earlybird Venture Capital (Dr. Frédéric du Bois-Reymond). At OVNI, we have three more deals that have yet to be announced but should in the coming weeks bringing a total of 7 deals over the past 18 months. NcodiN uses cutting-edge nanotechnology to create ultra-efficient, high-speed data transmission, enabling supercomputers to handle massive workloads with far less energy. The company was started by Francesco Manegatti, PhD, Bruno Garbin and Fabrice Raineri. cc: Arnaud Laurent / Thomas Renaudin #deeptech #ncodin #hpc #AI https://lnkd.in/dxi7GnMi

Neuralink stock update: Neuralink, Elon Musk’s brain-chip startup, secured FDA "breakthrough device" status for its Blindsight implant, aimed at restoring vision even in those without optic nerves. Backed by over $500M in funding, Neuralink faces competition from companies like Synchron and Paradromics. With strengths in innovation and potential market impact, challenges include regulatory delays and ethical concerns. https://lnkd.in/dbWDnAe3 #Neuralink #ElonMusk #BrainComputerInterface #Neurotech #TechInnovation #Biotech #Investing #StockMarket #HealthcareTech #FutureTech #ArtificialIntelligence #HumanAugmentation #TechStocks #HealthInnovation #Neurotechnology

On today's #tbt, let's remember Dra. Carolini Kaid participation in the preparatory event of the State of São Paulo for the 5th National Conference on Science, Technology, and Innovation (CNCTI), which will take place from June 4th to 6th in Brasília. The 5th CNCTI will create an important space for dialogue among different actors in society to reflect on the role of S&T in Brazil and its direction in the coming years. ➡️ This time, Dra. Carolini Kaid explained how startup funding works. Check out the video and learn about Vyro Biotherapeutics' innovative research! #govyro #vyro #science #zikavirus

Inspired after three days of deeptech scene in Estonia by the combination of research and innovation domains with global impact, start-ups, technology concepts for energy and climate, entrepreneurs from research, supportive innovation ecosystems, new possible partnerships, and much more. On the cruise going back from Tallinn to Stockholm, I have time to digest the recent days and previous ideas. One insight of creating coming activity is a workshop in my domain. Exchange creates opportunities, and jointly we can progress the industrial R&D to real implementation. ALMINICA AB contribution in EU Fet Open project SiComb has matured the transfer of knowledge metolodogies which are valuable for creating (real) impact from research. WORKSHOP The Future of SiC: Supply Chains, Value Chains, and Manufacturing It will have two themes (i) The Futures SiC workshop in SiC supply and value chains (ii) Open space technology workshop in SiC manufacturing Late Spring 2024 Get in touch if you are interested in this. - #siliconcarbide #manufacturing #future #transferofknowledge #deeptech #partnerships
