  • Science Voices is a a US-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to improving equity in science education, particularly in low-resource and overlooked communities. The initiative was born from the realization that many communities could not access high-concept educational resources due to limitations in internet bandwidth, power, or funding. The organization's operational model focuses on training educators in active and experiential learning methods—such as project-based, game-based, and place-based learning—and building digital tools for low-resource classrooms. Science Voices operates with a globally distributed team of volunteers and partners with institutions in several countries, including the US Virgin Islands, Brazil, Ukraine, South Korea, and Indonesia. Its mission is to train responsible planetary stewards by making science education more impactful and universally available through digital technologies. Science Voices runs several key projects to achieve its goals. 'Greenworks' is a global science, technology, and society (STS) research network that connects teachers and students to work on local environmental stewardship projects. 'Agavi' is a digital science learning platform designed for use in areas with limited resources. 'Sustainable States' is a role-playing board game designed to train teachers and students in game-based learning for subjects like geosciences and sustainability. The organization also produces the 'Global.Science' podcast to share the experiences of science educators.

  • ShopperCast provides consumer packaged goods (CPG) brands with store-level data to address execution gaps in convenience stores (c-stores). The company focuses on recovering revenue lost due to compliance failures, unsuccessful promotions, and poor shelf placement. It targets category managers within CPG companies, particularly those for whom the convenience store channel represents a significant portion of their revenue.The core of ShopperCast's offering is a platform that delivers visibility into the actual conditions within c-stores, moving beyond simple sales data. This allows brands to diagnose and rectify issues like out-of-stock items, incorrect pricing, and promotions that were not executed as planned. By identifying these specific failures, the service enables CPG firms to recover funds from wasted trade spend and mitigate losses in market share. The platform features a calculator that allows potential clients to estimate their 'compliance gap' and potential revenue at risk based on their product category, average revenue per store, and the number of stores carrying their products. The business model centers on providing this actionable data to help brands optimize their in-store execution and promotional spending. The service quantifies the financial impact of non-compliance, citing industry data points such as the 5-8% sales loss from out-of-stocks and the 7.8% sales uplift from full planogram compliance to build its case. ShopperCast was incorporated in the UK in September 2021.

  • Slick Barrier offers a patented, pesticide-free pest control system that creates a physical barrier to prevent crawling pests from entering buildings. The system involves applying a specialty clear coating to the exterior foundation, which dries into a hard, smooth, glass-like surface that pests like scorpions, spiders, cockroaches, and rodents cannot climb. This technology can be used as a standalone solution or to complement traditional pest control methods by keeping pests in areas treated with pesticides longer. Aaron, who had a background in telecommunication sales, and Tony, a former attorney, collaborated to find a non-chemical solution after their young sons were endangered by scorpion stings. They worked with a chemist to develop the proprietary formula. Starting as a service-based business in 2018 under the name 95 Applications, the company initially generated $180,000 in revenue in 2020. It has since evolved, rebranding from names like Scorpion Repel and Averzion to Slick Barrier, to better reflect its broad effectiveness against various pests. Slick Barrier's business model includes direct-to-consumer (D2C) sales of DIY kits through its website and retailers like The Home Depot, a professional installation service, and a franchise model for entrepreneurs. The company gained significant exposure after appearing on Season 14 of 'Shark Tank,' where they secured an investment offer from Lori Greiner. While the deal with Greiner did not close, the appearance dramatically increased sales and brand visibility. The company's effectiveness has been validated by third-party testing from universities, including Texas A&M and New Mexico State University.
