An innovative Kiwi start-up company has been named as a finalist for a prestigious tech challenge to be held in California’s Silicon Valley next month.
Engender Technologies, which is commercialising cutting-edge photonics tech developed by Associate Professor Cather Simpson of the University of Auckland, will compete in the third annual World Cup Tech Challenge before major players in the world’s tech scene.
Start-ups accepted into the challenge are considered in a “pre-global” stage, meaning they have launched their products in their respective local markets and now ready for a global launch.
It comes soon after Engender Technologies was also named among the finalists of the KiwiNet Research Commercialisation Awards.
Since Associate Professor Simpson founded the university’s Photon Factory six years ago, the facility has attracted more than $2 million in commercial contracts.
