LI high-tech startups eye funding
A handful of scientists-turned-entrepreneurs from Long Island will get a chance next month to present their big ideas to investors who fund high-tech startups.
The Long Island Capital Alliance Thursday named six research teams and fledgling companies that will present June 8 at the Technology Transfer Capital Forum in Melville. The event connects venture capitalists with scientists from Brookhaven National Laboratory looking to turn their discoveries into businesses.
Three of the presenters have already formed fledgling companies, but need funding to take the next step. They include Hybridyne Imaging Technologies Inc., which uses a tiny digital gamma camera to identify prostate cancer while in its early stage.
