The Anthrogen (formerly Arctic Capture) team is pleased to announce we are joining the Summer 2024 batch at YCombinator. From Early July until October, we plan on making the most of the accelerator and the resources provided by YC.
Being part of the world's most prestigious accelerator and access to additional capital allows for continued R&D progress both on the biotech and robotic side. We plan to lock down core IP and continue to climb the TRL ladder in the coming months.
This latest round of funding by YC is in addition to angel checks raised from Justin Wenig and Nick Diao, the co-founders of Coursedog (YC W19), along with the Overture accelerator and non-dilutive Columbia Venture Competition grant. This closes our pre-seed round as we now enter building mode and look to schedule our next raise in the fall.
Edit: We also just launched on Launch YC! Check it out here!
