Get ready to meet the Fall 2025 cohort of our Science Validation Program 🍂
We have startups in water resources, carbon capture & conversion, integrative patient care, nanomedicine & drug analysis, precision oncology, and early diagnostics for heart disease.
🔸 Hydrominds
Team: Walter Immerzeel, Sonu Khanal, Arthur Lutz
Hydrominds’ ambition is to transform mountain water resources and disaster management with the HydroMind Engine—an on-demand, high-resolution data platform powered by a hybrid of physical modelling and AI that delivers ultra-accurate hydrological information for any mountain range worldwide.
🔸 Carboniq Technologies
Team: Vince De Bode, Jian He, Mark Hagens
Carboniq develops modular carbonization systems that convert biomass waste into clean charcoal, electricity and valuable chemicals by transforming captured CO2, while generating AI driven data on soil fertility and supporting sustainable agriculture with major emission reductions.
🔸 BeatSuite
Team: Michiel Schoenaker
The BeatSuite is an AI-driven system that integrates light and music therapy to support (pediatric) patients during a hospital admission. By responding to physiological signals, it reduces pain, restores sleep rhythm, and creates a calmer, healing environment.
🔸 Lipidara
Team: Markus Weingarth, Maria Suero, Erico Mastrobattista
LIPIDARA’s ambition is to offer integrated services to analyze and optimize nanomedicines. They provide isotope-labelled lipids for studying lipid nanoparticles, and offer solid-state NMR-based CRO services to characterize LNPs and lipid-targeting therapeutics.
🔸 Precision Oncology Solutions
Team: Marnix Lam, Sander Poelert and Rijk de Jong
At Precision Oncology Solutions, we transform cancer care by making personalized, expert-driven dosimetry accessible and scalable — empowering every clinic to deliver safer, more effective treatments and better outcomes for every patient, every time.
🔸 Microcardia
Team: Tim Sakkers
MICROCARDIA offers a simple blood-based test for the early diagnosis of heart disease, with a specific focus on conditions that disproportionately affect women.
