    "We wanted to create a brand that is relatable, fun, and celebrates you - as you are now. We're not in the business of selling you on someone you SHOULD be. You are enough." Amazing news from our portfolio company Scent Lab, the fragrance brand built just for you:

    Co-Founder & CEO at Scent Lab | Forbes 30 Under 30

    Scent Lab's biggest launch yet and I have never been prouder - we're LIVE with customizable perfume mist! The first of it's kind, mix & match your own custom scent potion in just a few clicks. We launched SIX core mists that can be used solo or blended together in one of our refillable potion bottles - think scalable customization ;) Today we go from a candle brand to a fragrance brand which is such a pivotal moment for me & the brand. Almost immediately after we launched in Nov 22, I quiely started development for perfume. It took a year & a half to nail down the formulations with our luxury fragrance house so that these scents were complex enough to stand on their own but also designed to be blendable & stackable. AND WE DID IT - IT'S HERE! I am exceptionally proud today - proud of the team around me, proud of the work we all poured into this & proud of the finished product. Not only do we unveil a new product line today but we also unveiled a new website, new packaging & extended brand work which is incredibly & thoughtfully executed thanks to my talented co-founder, Ali Kriegsman. The beauty industry and fragrance specifically, can often feel SO ASPIRATIONAL that it makes you feel like you need to be something you're not - if you wear x, you'll become y. We wanted to create a brand that is relatable, fun & celebrates you - who you are now, we're not in the business of selling you on someone you SHOULD be. You are enough. Most of which are Gen Z & Gen Alpha and I am so proud we are bringing this message to life for them. So check the new & improved site out @ www.shopscentlab.com and you'll notice, this isn't your typical fragrance brand. We're taking the fuss out of fragrance. Special shout-out to the folks who got us here today :) Gabrielle de Coster Katharine Deutsch Eva Zar Mhaya Polacco Andrew Ross Ali Kriegsman Jenna Jung Carl Roberts

    📣 Exciting news! Paradromics has been accepted into the U.S. FDA’s newest accelerator program (TAP) and we have received our second Breakthrough Device Designation! These programs offer an expedited review process for transformative medical devices (like #BCIs 🧠). Matthew Willsey, MD, PhD, a leading neurosurgeon at the University of Michigan Medical School stated, “I’m excited to see BCI technologies, such as the Connexus® device, entering the clinical phase. This is one step closer to restoring movement to people with paralysis, or speech to those who have lost this function.” In preparation for our clinical trials in 2025, we have also launched the Paradromics Community, where patients, caregivers, and allies can stay up-to-date about current and future applications of Paradromics’ core technology.  Read the full press release: https://lnkd.in/gWyjBpM4

    Founder and CEO of Luna Daily | Mental Health First Aider

    The word is out! 💫 Luna Daily is joining the Unilever Ventures family, and they're joining ours If you'd given me a magic wand of who my dream investor partners would be when I started Luna Daily, with their unparalleled experience through the beauty portfolio they've built, it was UV. But more than their expertise, in Anna Ohlsson-Baskerville, Clementine Provost and the team I've gained simply the best people, who deeply care and believe in us. We also welcome new Angels Michelle Kennedy, Aaron Chatterley, Jane Henderson and Taos Edmondson, CFA, amongst others. I wouldn't be here without the continued support from my truly wonderful existing teams at Redrice Ventures, Joyance Partners and Angels who've been by my side since day one. In a World where no-one teaches you how to fundraise (I somewhat liken it to politics and mortgages) and where the sole female-founder stats remain pretty dire (we're talking less than 2% of VC funding), this is hands down my proudest career moment and I'm so excited for the future. To the people who have supported me through it all, you know who you are - thank you. Full Beauty Independent announcement in link below 👇

    “Paradromics’ mission is to transform otherwise untreatable health conditions in brain health into solvable technology problems. We’re fundamentally building a medical device to serve unmet needs.” A huge step for our portfolio company Paradromics Inc.:

    Neurotech startup Paradromics Inc. will be putting its brain implant on trial next year, as the race to be the leader in the nascent brain-computer interface space heats up. “The brain is a super fascinating organ. We have about 85 billion neurons and every neuron is a million times slower than a computer chip. And yet, the brain does incredible things,” said Matt Angle, CEO and founder of Paradromics, in an interview with “CNBC Tech: The Edge.” “What that means is that if you want to get data in and out of the brain, you have to be able to talk to a ton of different neurons simultaneously. And that’s where the emphasis on building these high-speed, high-data-rate devices came from,” he added. The trial would follow competitor Neuralink’s move to implant a chip into a patient’s brain in March. The company, which was cofounded by Elon Musk, later disclosed that part of its brain implant malfunctioned in the weeks following the procedure. ➡️ Read more: https://cnb.cx/3KSgaZ5

    "As a result of this study, we were able to go back and derive new formulas to be able to map the voltages [from the device], to sweat loss, salt concentration, and ultimately to be able to provide more accurate measurements and feedback.” Fascinating research from the University of Massachusetts Amherst and our portfolio company Epicore Biosystems demonstrates the success of its groundbreaking wearable sweat monitor:
