Q1: Stamford Winners

Fjord Weather     
Drew   Lambert  drewlambert02@gmail.com            203-249-6310
Waze for Marine Weather. 
Comment: A rare new company that has discovered a vast new market – accurate local boating weather. But execution before big players get interested is the key question given the new device requirements.

Pelletric     
Shem Lachhman         shem.lachhman@pelletric.com           516-728-2911 
Comment: A patented solution for continuous measuring of blood pressure in hospitals. Needs buy-in from institutions.

SEO SAAS
Comment: A scrappy start with a low cost SEO product “for the rest of us.” Still early in development..

Aquinas Training 
Hugh Seaton   hugh@aquinas.io        203-524-9539
Aquinas Training Makes Mobile & VR Software for Management Training. We solve the key failing of all training programs - retention. By sending mobile notifications, and tying these to compelling experiences, including our AquinasVR mobile virtual reality experience, companies can ensure employees retain and apply their training. 
Comment: While “Ed-Tech” has a narrow band of potential investors this improved pitch won some fans.

NewsFundr 
Michelle Carter           hello@newsfundr.com            9143159557
NewsFundr is platform for independent journalists which removes the influence of advertisers, editors and power brokers on the news. 
Comment: By dropping some big media names this pitch got some attention but needs to address the really big question – can it help big media companies make the news business profitable again?
