[1]February GCVF Meeting To Highlight Four Startups.
The Gulf Coast Venture Forum has selected 4 qualified companies to present in March to both Sarasota and Naples Chapters.
Industry: IT Services
This engaging company has a single card/app that links to merchants, manufacturers and memberships, provides discounts to include rewards and coupons, via their patent pending system. Over 150 million consumers do not have a smartphone; they can link them via a centralized system and the smartphone users too. Manufacturers and merchants benefit from connectivity and a closed loop processing system.
Industry: Electronics / Instrumentation
A New York based company has designed a fully self-contained, cellular device which allows homeowners to remotely monitor temperature, humidity & power without an active landline or internet connection in the property being monitored. A simple web interface allows quick and easy set-up and access to historical data. The target market are the owners of the roughly 22 million properties in the US which are unoccupied for extended periods each year.
Industry: Mobile
This Miami based company is developing a mobile vibration accessory for smartphones and two-way radios to solve the problem of notifying and alerting workers in noisy environments of important events that are crucial to worker safety. Augmented touch or amplified vibration is more reliable method to notify workers of important events such as worker safety than hearing/sound. Customer targets: distributors, OEMs, hardware, retailers, and multinationals.
Industry: Business Products and Services
This company is the first to market fully integrated cloud-based software for the debt collection industry which combines Classic and Legal models. Being an organic cloud-based solution, they provide a single platform for multiple offices, deliver seamless and integrated communication with leading industry information providers and safeguards solid collection process workflows. More than 4,300 major debt collection agencies exist in the US, plus multitudes of collection lawyers. None has an existing software product which truly combines Legal and Classic collections into one solution
