Noya is working to deliver the high-quality, permanent, carbon removal that the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has identified as necessary in order to limit global warming below 1.5℃. The company’s proprietary direct air capture (DAC) system produces a significant amount of clean water (6 million m3 per year per full-scale facility) and unlocks grid services in addition to high-quality carbon removal credits. The team enjoys strong support from pioneering carbon removal buyers, including Shopify, Watershed, and one of the largest university endowments, as well as leading investors including USV, Collab Fund, EQT, and DNX Ventures.
Turning CO2 into Carbon-Neutral Industrial Chemicals Evan Haas, Co-Founder & CEO, Helix Carbon Helix Carbon: https://helixcarbon.co/
Helix Carbon is decarbonizing heavy industry by transforming emitted CO2 into carbon-neutral fuels & chemicals including CO, ethylene, and syngas. Born from MIT innovations, these electrochemical systems use inexpensive catalysts with high stability to convert flue gas directly into these cost-competitive carbon feedstocks. Helix builds drop-in electrolyzers that integrate with existing direct reduced iron & petrochemical facilities to upcycle CO2 emissions into chemical feedstocks, enabling green steel, polycarbonate, polyurethane, and more.
The Future of Industrial Cooling Maher Damak, Co-Founder & CEO, Infinite Cooling Infinite Cooling: https://www.infinite-cooling.com/
Cooling towers are ubiquitous in industrial and commercial settings. They are critical pieces of equipment but also major sources of energy and water consumption. They are used across a wide range of applications, including power generation, manufacturing, chemical processing, and HVAC systems for large buildings and data centers.
At Infinite Cooling, we begin with TowerPulse, our advanced sensors and software package that leverages physics-informed machine learning to optimize cooling tower operations. TowerPulse enables real-time monitoring and predictive maintenance, ensuring optimal performance, reducing energy consumption, and minimizing operational downtime.
Building on this, our WaterPanel technology uses electrostatic fields to captures pure, demineralized water directly from cooling tower plumes. This innovative solution provides an alternative demineralized water source while eliminating visible plumes, helping facilities conserve water, lower costs, and reduce environmental impact. Together, these technologies address key sustainability and efficiency challenges in industrial cooling.
Activate Customer Data with Decision Intelligence Abhi Yadav, Co-Founder & CEO, iCustomer iCustomer: https://www.icustomer.ai/
GTM teams are overwhelmed by fragmented data across platforms, leading to ineffective targeting, false signals loop, wasted time, and frustrated buyers and sellers. This chaos results in high acquisition costs, bad retention and missed opportunities.
iCustomer's agentic AI platform unifies first-party and third-party customer data to deliver actionable intelligence. The system automates decision-making and orchestrates optimized GTM plays, enabling teams to execute with precision and efficiency.
Our Identity Resolution Engine creates immutable IDs mapped to hundreds of external data sources, while our Decision Intelligence Layer activates optimal GTM plays powered by AI Agents. The platform continuously optimizes CAC, LTV, and Ad ROI through machine learning and real-time market signals.
AI Driven Bloodless Blood Tests Sean (Shunsuke) Matsuoka, Co-Founder & COO, GPx GPx: https://gpx.ai/
In an aging society, the number of heart failure patients is increasing, making the prevention of readmissions and reduction of medical costs critical issues. Remote monitoring using invasive implantable devices has proven effective in reducing heart failure readmissions, but its use remains limited.
To address this, GPx has developed an algorithm that non-invasively predicts signs of heart failure exacerbation. This algorithm was created using clinical trial data from monitoring 245 heart failure patients over 6 months to a year at eight facilities, including the Mayo Clinic in the U.S. The algorithm links digital biomarker data with vital blood tests (NT-proBNP and creatinine) to achieve high-precision prediction and early medical intervention.
Additionally, with a grant of 1.2 billion yen provided through AMED, we are collaborating with the National Cerebral and Cardiovascular Center (Dr. Chisato Izumi) to conduct a clinical trial involving 400 patients starting April 2025. The trial will be conducted at the National Cerebral and Cardiovascular Center, Kyoto University, Kobe University, and Kochi University.
Furthermore, at this year's MIT Japan Conference, we will unveil a groundbreaking point-of-care (POC) potassium testing device for the first time. At the conference, we aim to explore the feasibility of applying our technology to other conditions (such as kidney failure, pulmonary arterial hypertension, and cardio-oncology) and to assess the potential for providing algorithm-based services for heart failure patients within Japan.
