This year,after a gap of couple of years, I was a judge at the Texas Big 12 Business plan competition. The purpose is to bring out the innovation in the Big 12 schools and encourage the grads there to commercialize their discoveries and inventions. There was a healthy snack company from Oklahoma State, skincare company from univ of New Mexico called Surya Skincare, VeraPulse from Univ of Missouri (interesting photoacoustic technology that enables oncologists to “hear” the melanoma tumor cells”) and Microtransponder from UT Dallas. Microtransponder and Verapulse moved forward and the finalists are then eligible to compete in the Global Moot corp next month.
