About two years ago, Adam Compain and I founded Light to modernize the grid and better support renewables. Huge thanks to Stripe for featuring us alongside these other exciting companies!
I’m hiring Austin-based engineers (and more) to join our talented team. Come join us!
There are bps of growth yet to be unlocked in every crevice of the economy. We spoke to a handful of the companies applying emerging technologies to lesser known frontiers:

→ @atomic_inc: creating physical goods at the speed of bits
→ Light: building infrastructure for a future powered by renewable energy
→ Katalyst: techwear that intensifies your workout 6x
→ Archistar: accelerating permitting by 50% with AI
→ @Lucid_Bots: drones for dangerous cleaning jobs
→ @sorcerer_earth: collecting 1000x more data points for accurate weather forecasting
→ Masquerade: redefining live theater with immersive technology
