Cambridge Terahertz is an MIT spinout building a chip-based imaging system that combines the 3D vision of lidar with the see-through power of X-ray, but using human-safe terahertz waves at a thousandth the power of a cell phone. Shrunk from an airport-scale scanner into a palm-sized, two-pound device, its AI-powered sensors detect concealed weapons through clothing and bags, and can see inside sealed packages without opening them. Founded in 2023 by MIT PhD Nathan Monroe, the company raised a $12M seed round led by Felicis with participation from Amazon's Industrial Innovation Fund.
Gene Dolgoff is the founder, CEO, CTO, and Chairman of Holobeam Technologies, a Long Island biotech building holographic tools to detect and treat cancer. He has been making holograms since 1964, holds over 65 patents worldwide, built the world's first LCD projector, and consulted with Gene Roddenberry on the concept that became the Star Trek Holodeck. Today his company is developing Holographic Energy Teleportation (HET), advanced nanoparticles, and a new class of MRI imaging - aiming, in his words, to teleport energy through the body to kill cancer cells.
Exodigo is an AI-powered underground mapping company that fuses multiple geophysical sensors with machine learning to produce non-intrusive 3D maps of what lies beneath the surface, helping transit agencies, utilities and engineers de-risk multi-billion-dollar infrastructure projects.
Pantelis Kalogiros is a Greek-born technologist-turned-investor serving as General Partner at Cox Exponential (CX2), the early-stage AI investment vehicle of Cox Enterprises. He co-founded Fyusion in 2014, building its web infrastructure to handle 2.7 billion daily requests and embedding its 3D vision SDK into 200 million devices before the company was acquired by Cox Automotive in 2020. A self-taught dropout who obtained a U.S. green card without a bachelor's degree, Pantelis brings rare depth as both a hands-on engineer and active venture investor focused on applied AI.

Mini Suri is the Co-Founder and CEO of VELMENI, a Silicon Valley-based FDA-cleared dental AI company that analyzes 2D and 3D dental X-rays to detect pathologies that even experienced dentists miss. Drawing on 20+ years at Citi, a stint building intelligent automation at Uber, and an MBA from MIT Sloan, she pivoted to healthtech after a personal brush with the cost of missed diagnoses. Under her leadership, VELMENI has grown to serve 500+ dental offices across 50+ countries with AI-powered tools for panoramic, bitewing, periapical, and CBCT imaging - aiming to bring affordable, high-quality dental diagnostics to one billion patients worldwide.

Eric Paley is a serial entrepreneur turned seed-stage venture capitalist who co-founded Founder Collective in 2008, building it into one of the world's highest-performing seed funds with investments in Uber, The Trade Desk, Airtable, and 20+ unicorns. Before VC, he co-founded Brontes Technologies — a 3D dental imaging startup spun out of MIT — and sold it to 3M for $95 million in 2006. A perennial Forbes Midas List honoree (ranked as high as #9 globally and the world's top-ranked seed investor), he became known for his unusually candid critiques of venture capital excess. In June 2025, he left Founder Collective to serve as Massachusetts Secretary of Economic Development under Governor Maura Healey, overseeing a 700-person agency focused on housing affordability, business competitiveness, and the AI innovation economy.
