TITLE:
How To Be An Entrepreneur? TandemLaunch
===================================================
ABSTRACT:
—————————————————
TandemLaunch is a unique startup foundry and seed fund based in Montreal. Through investing in highly qualified people, TandemLaunch works with tech entrepreneurs to build companies around acquired university technologies.
Learn about TandemLaunch through the experience of one of our successful ventures: Artmiz Golkaramnay & Gursimran Singh Sethi, the co-founders of LATYS.
LATYS is leveraging groundbreaking research in the area of reconfigurable metasurfaces to create the world’s first non-reciprocal wireless relay system that breaks the current rules of antenna design. LATYS proprietary technology is built using non-resonant metasurfaces that allow us to build ultra-compact wireless relays that are dynamically reconfigurable and are inherently immune to interference, multipath fading, and noise.
