NJ, AI, Startups, Venture Capital, Princeton
On September 25th, I had a table for Zilliz/Milvus/Unstructured Data Meetup and I got to speak to a lot of amazing Startups, ecosystem people and Venture Capitalists.
The Princeton area is starting to grow into a nice place for AI Startups with several accelerators and locations of note. The location was the very cool, Somerset Innovation Center.
My friends from Startup Grind were there, I really need to talk to Startup Grind New York soon.
David Stengel from Startup Grind Princeton was helping to run this amazing event. It was good to see Peter Chmiel again, he is involved in a number of AI, Blockchain and Startups that are very interesting.
John Snee from Startup Grind Trenton got to pitch with his super awesome startup ULimo. This is a really cool transportation service, when he is ready there are some really good places for Milvus in there. I can’t wait for the next generation offering.
VentureX was there for those looking for physical space. I got to speak to Mahender and I highly recommend you connect with her on startup physical space.
I got to see a bunch of startup pitches and I was super impressed by all the amazing BioTech, MedTech and Life Science startups there are in New Jersey.
- Delphine Diagnostics
- 4M Therapeutics
- BMI Organ Bank
- Vital Start Health
- Sama Fertility
- Gordian Surgical
The AI startups were very interesting.
- Boardroom IQ
- Minerva Solutions
- Interflexion
- Cognute
- Tangra
- Spring AI Studio
Tech, Media and Telcom startups were cool as well.
- Kommunity
- Collective Audience
- Syen App
- Orrrg
- GBQ Solutions
- Little One Nutrition
It was nice to see the state supporting AI and Startup innovation.
My talk was about why you need Milvus in any and all things you work on.
I was impressed by the capital, venture, banking and funding people present.
My favorite local media people were there.
On October 23rd, we are back at 23 Orchard for a StartupGrind / Unstructured Data joint event.
There were also a few people in the tables by me including:
- MARCo Health
- Nudoors
The event was powered by an interesting app, I will continue using.
I can’t wait for the next Startup and AI event in the Princeton area, come out. It’s a great time.
