Micruity is a financial-technology infrastructure company building the data pipes that let lifetime-income products work inside everyday 401(k) plans. Its Advanced Routing System (MARS) acts as a secure central clearing house that connects insurers, asset managers, recordkeepers and plan sponsors, letting them communicate, verify and aggregate annuity data so retirement savings can be turned into a predictable monthly paycheck. Founded in 2017 by Trevor Gary and Chris Livadas, the company is headquartered in Toronto and raised an oversubscribed $20M Series A in December 2025.
Starpath is a Hawthorne, California space company building robotic factories that mine water ice from the Moon and refine it into rocket propellant. Founded in 2022 by former SpaceX engineers, the company designs fleets of autonomous mining rovers, on-site refineries, and liquid oxygen (LOX) storage systems to produce fuel where rockets actually need it - off Earth. The bet is simple and audacious: if you can make oxidizer on the Moon, you can make deep space travel affordable and turn humanity into a multi-planet species. Starpath raised a $12M seed round in 2024 co-led by 8VC and Fusion Fund.
