Congratulations to @SOSV @hax_co on announcing the new home of the NJ HAX Plasma Forge, a collaboration with PPPL and @NewJerseyEDA to launch and grow startups focused on plasma technology.
Our big push into plasma 🎆tech - HAX Plasma Forge - has a home: the SRI building in Princeton, NJ, which is also the former home of RCA Laboratories 📺and the David Sarnoff Research Center. We will do our best to live up to the legends who walked those halls! sosv.com/the-hax-plasma-forg…
