The round was led by JOIN CAPITAL, with support from Forma Prime, EIC - European Innovation Council, elev8.vc, Tiburon, Frontures and Atlantis Ventures, as well as other angel investors.The startup from ExciteLab batch 1 is developing a new generation of gas sensors that are built directly on microchips using solid-state materials, replacing traditional liquid-based components. This makes the sensors smaller, more energy-efficient and suitable for mass production using standard semiconductor processes.

The new batch from ExciteLab features startups developing solutions for diverse industries, including semiconductor manufacturing, robotics, sustainable mobility, real-time data analysis, and industrial automation. These startups tackle specific challenges by enhancing production processes, streamlining workflows, and increasing efficiency.

As part of our acceleration program, these startups now receive support from experienced mentors, industry partners, and investors. This backing not only helps refine their technologies but also provides strategic guidance, funding opportunities, and access to potential customers and collaborators. Here are the 10 ExciteLab startups:
