    Marketing

    Vcommerce, operating as SmartCommerce, is a B2B technology and data platform specializing in e-commerce solutions for Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) brands. The leadership team, including Silverberg, brings extensive experience from their time at Channel Intelligence, a pioneering e-commerce technology partner acquired by Google in 2013. They identified a gap in the market for CPG brands, which were not well-served by existing 'where-to-buy' solutions, leading to the creation of SmartCommerce. The company's core business revolves around a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model, providing tools that transform digital marketing touchpoints—such as social media posts, ads, videos, and emails—into direct e-commerce opportunities. SmartCommerce's flagship product, Click2Cart®, enables consumers to add products directly to their preferred retailer's online shopping cart with a single click, effectively shortening the path to purchase. This is powered by an AI-based data platform that ingests and analyzes vast amounts of real-time product data, including availability, pricing, and location, across a network of thousands of retailers. The platform provides clients like Nestlé, Clorox, and Microsoft with real-time analytics and insights to manage and optimize marketing campaigns, reduce out-of-stock issues, and measure the direct impact of marketing spend on sales. Financially, SmartCommerce is a Series B company that has successfully raised a total of $27 million over four funding rounds, with investors including Argentum Group, First Analysis, and Southeast Investor Group. A significant $13 million growth financing round was led by Argentum in April 2021. This funding has supported the company's growth, including building out its sales team and accelerating product development. Strategic growth milestones include the acquisition of recipe-centric e-commerce firm Myxx and contextual commerce company Basketful in 2022, which expanded its capabilities into bundled product solutions and contextual commerce, such as shoppable recipes. The company operates on a fully remote basis with a team of over 120 employees and has a global presence, serving clients across the Americas and Europe.

A key differentiator is that every provider is a veterinary professional, background-checked and verified by the VetterCare team, ensuring a high level of expertise and safety. The platform provides pet owners with detailed care reports, photos, and updates for peace of mind.

  • VICIVISION America

    Semiconductors

    VICIVISION America operates as the North American subsidiary of the Italian firm Vici & C. S.p.A., specializing in advanced optical measurement systems for manufacturing. The parent company, VICI & C, was founded in Italy in 1977, initially assembling circuit boards and later expanding into industrial automation before creating the VICIVISION brand in 1999 to meet the growing demand for vision systems. VICIVISION America was established in 2018 to provide direct sales, service, and support to the North American market, with offices in Arizona and Illinois. The company's core business is the design and production of non-contact, optical measuring machines for turned and ground cylindrical parts. These systems are engineered for shop-floor deployment, allowing manufacturers to perform quality control inspections directly beside CNC lathes. The technology works by projecting telecentric LED light onto a component; a video camera then captures the part's silhouette as it rotates, enabling software to perform a comprehensive dimensional analysis in seconds. This process measures various features, including diameters, lengths, threads, and complex geometric forms, significantly reducing inspection times compared to traditional methods like calipers, micrometers, and profile projectors. VICIVISION offers several product lines, including the Techno, Prima, and X-Series, each tailored to specific industrial needs. The Techno series is designed for larger components common in the automotive sector, such as camshafts and turbines. The X-Series focuses on high-precision micro-mechanical components for industries like medical device and watchmaking. Some machines combine optical capabilities with tactile touch probes for more comprehensive inspections. The company serves a wide range of industries, including automotive, aerospace, medical, dental implants, and general precision mechanics. By providing rapid and accurate measurements, the systems help clients increase production efficiency, reduce scrap, and automate data collection for process control.
