POM Safe
POM Safe is a Newark, New Jersey safety-technology company that builds a unified personal-safety platform for home health, hospice, and community-based care. It pairs a wearable, two-way communication device and mobile app with 24/7 dispatch, real-time GPS location, intake risk scoring, 'Check On Me' timers, and a compliance dashboard - giving caregivers who work alone in the field a discreet way to summon help and giving agencies the tools to prevent and document workplace violence. Founded after a campus-violence tragedy, POM Safe raised $3M in Series A funding in 2020 and works with major universities and healthcare providers.
Quin
Quin (Quintessential Design) builds intelligent safety technology for helmets. Founded in 2017 by industrial designer Anirudha 'Ani' Surabhi, the company created the first motorcycle helmets with integrated crash detection and an SOS beacon, then pivoted to an 'ingredient brand' model that licenses its sensor-fusion hardware and emergency-response software to leading helmet makers. Its Quin Pod and Quin Tag devices measure motion thousands of times per second, detect dangerous impacts, and automatically alert emergency contacts and dispatch services with location and impact data across cycling, motorsport, snow sports, climbing and equestrian.
