Clarity Movement Co. is a Berkeley-based climate-tech company that builds solar-powered, internet-connected air quality sensors and pairs them with a cloud analytics platform sold as 'Sensing-as-a-Service.' Founded by UC Berkeley graduates in 2014, Clarity makes it cheap and easy for governments, schools, communities, and companies to measure pollutants like PM2.5 and NO2 at street level - data that has historically come from a handful of expensive, sparse reference stations. Its flagship Node-S device has been deployed across 250+ cities in 85+ countries, powering networks like Breathe London and Open Air Chicago.
Thaddeus Fulford-Jones is the London-born, MIT-trained engineer who co-founded and leads Radial (formerly Radial Analytics), a Concord, Massachusetts healthtech company that uses AI to guide clinicians through the high-stakes 'crossroads moments' of patient care - especially deciding where a patient should go after leaving the hospital. A serial founder, he earlier built and sold Locately, a pioneering GPS shopper-analytics firm acquired in 2012, before turning his fascination with behavioral 'nudge theory' and large-scale data toward value-based care. Radial's platform has analyzed data from 18 million patients and 82 million encounters to help more people recover safely at home.
