Seurat Technologies is a Massachusetts-based contract metal manufacturer built around Area Printing, a laser powder bed fusion process invented at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Instead of melting metal powder one point at a time, Seurat uses millions of tiny laser points to print entire areas at once, decoupling resolution from speed. The company doesn't sell printers; it runs its own clean-energy print factories and sells finished parts at costs meant to rival casting, forging, and machining, with the goal of reshoring high-volume metal manufacturing and cutting its carbon footprint.
James DeMuth is the co-founder and CEO of Seurat Technologies, a Wilmington, Massachusetts metal additive manufacturing company chasing a single audacious goal: printing metal parts fast and cheap enough to compete with mass production, then planting factories next to the customers who need them. He co-invented Seurat's Area Printing technology while working on laser fusion research at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, holds a hand in roughly 145 patents, and has raised more than $181 million to reshore manufacturing and cut carbon out of how metal gets made.
Excelsior Sciences is a New York City biotech building 'machine-native chemistry' - a way to make small molecules that machines can execute and AI can learn from. Its proprietary smart bloccs platform turns drug synthesis into a modular, automation-friendly, iterative process, closing the loop between AI-driven discovery and real-world manufacturing. Founded in 2024 and spun out of Deerfield Management, the company raised $95M in late 2025 to scale the platform and reshore U.S. drug discovery and production.
