Deepen AI
Deepen AI is a Silicon Valley company building the data lifecycle infrastructure for autonomous systems and physical AI. Its platform combines multi-sensor data annotation, sensor calibration (LiDAR, camera, radar, IMU), and validation tools that carmakers, robotics firms, and AV developers use to turn raw sensor data into reliable training data. Founded in 2017, Deepen also co-created Safety Pool, a global scenario-sharing initiative launched with the World Economic Forum and WMG at the University of Warwick.
Integrated Projects
Integrated Projects is a New York-based building-intelligence company that turns any physical building into accurate as-built digital plans. Through its IPX platform, it pairs LiDAR reality-capture (SCANIT) with machine-learning-driven point-cloud-to-BIM conversion (BIMIT) to produce standardized LOD200-LOD300 BIM and CAD files that owners, architects, engineers and contractors can view, query, measure and share in a browser. The company's pitch is simple: before you can renovate what a building should be, you have to accurately document what it is.
iQ3Connect
iQ3Connect is a Woburn, Massachusetts company that runs a web-based XR platform for enterprise training and 3D collaboration. Its no-code tools let manufacturers turn existing CAD, digital-twin, and point-cloud data into interactive VR, AR, desktop, and mobile experiences that open in a standard browser - no app install required. Founded in 2017 out of MIT research by Ali Merchant, the company serves aerospace, automotive, manufacturing, and oil and gas customers with immersive assembly training, safety procedures, remote design reviews, and multi-user virtual classrooms.
PRENAV
PRENAV digitizes the world's critical infrastructure with drones, LiDAR, 3D analytics, and deep learning. Its web-based platform, PRENAV.XYZ, combines photogrammetry with AI to turn drone imagery into detailed 3D digital twins, then scans them for cracks, corrosion, and structural damage - resolving surface features smaller than 0.2mm. Founded in 2013 in Redwood City, the company replaces dangerous rope-and-scaffold inspections of cell towers, wind turbines, bridges, dams, and even nuclear reactors with automated, precise, GPS-independent drone flights.
RIIICO
RIIICO is a Düsseldorf-based deeptech startup turning LiDAR scans of real factories into intelligent, editable 3D models. Its AI segments and classifies every object on the shop floor, exports it as OpenUSD, and plugs into NVIDIA Omniverse and Siemens Tecnomatix so planners can redesign brownfield plants in a fraction of the usual time.
Felix Fink
Felix Fink is the co-founder and CEO of RIIICO, a German deeptech startup building AI-powered 3D factory digital twins using LiDAR point cloud data. Founded in 2021 out of RWTH Aachen University, RIIICO transforms physical factory floors into collaborative, predictive digital environments in a fraction of the time traditional modeling takes. The company raised a $5M seed round in 2025 led by Pi Labs, won the Siemens Inventors of the Year 2024 award in the Open Innovation category, and counts Volvo, Porsche, Volkswagen, and Schaeffler among its customers. Fink drives product strategy with a philosophy of combining startup agility with deep industrial knowledge.
