WIN held a site visit to portfolio company Howso this week. We were able to hear from Howso's new CEO Gaurav Rao, catch up with founder Michael Capps and CTO Chris Hazard and meet most of the local team. Thank you for hosting us and for the update! If you're unfamiliar with Howso, please check them out! In the crowded and overwhleming space of AI companies, this team is deploying its trustowrthy and explainable AI solutions in academic institutions, non-profits, global financial enterprises, healthcare organizations, and government agencies. Howso users are empowered to make decisions directly from data, rather than relying on abstract black box models. 

We are delighted to announce that Deep Blue Medical Advances, Inc., one WIN's portfolio companies, has been honored with the prestigious Luis Villalobos Award in Life Sciences at the Angel Capital Association Summit in Columbus, Ohio! 🏆 This award, which recognizes the most ingenious and innovative ideas recently financed by members of the Angel Capital Association - representing 15,000 angel investors worldwide - is a testament to Deep Blue’s dedication to transforming soft tissue surgery and improving patient outcomes. Together with WIN's Venture Partner and Deep Blue co-investors Harbright Ventures, we would like to congratulate Deep Blue CEO Bill Perry, Founder and CMO Dr. Howard Levinson and the Deep Blue team on this well-deserved recognition!

We're thrilled to see the remarkable progress made by WIN portfolio company, Natrx | Adaptive Infrastructure. Specializing in the development of nature-based modules known as ExoForms, Natrx is dedicated to addressing the challenges of coastal erosion. Witnessing the installation of their innovative solutions in our great state of North Carolina is a testament to the company's commitment to environmental preservation at a reasonable cost to customers.
