Shawn Murphy
Shawn Murphy is the co-founder, CEO and CTO of Titan Advanced Energy Solutions, a Salem, Massachusetts company using ultrasound to see inside lithium-ion batteries. After deploying instruments for NASA at Draper Laboratory and building Royal Dutch Shell's innovation engine, Shell TechWorks, Murphy spent the summer of 2016 painting wave-propagation equations on the walls of a Croatian guest room. The result is technology that reads a battery's true state of health and charge in real time, claimed to be about 100 times better than the industry standard - now deployed on cell-manufacturing lines to catch defects before they ship. Titan raised a $33M Series B led by HG Ventures in 2021.
