Seeking: Herb/Grain Processing & Packaging Solutions
A yet2 client is interested in both technological approaches and potentially an Asian source for large scale treatment of herb/grain-based materials in preparation for use in dietary supplement, food and drug products. This encompasses approaches to sanitization to meet at least 3 log reduction in aerobic plate count, milling to two different median particle sizes <600µm, <200µm, non-solvent based agglomeration & drying, finished product blending for content uniformity.

Tips for Startups: Making Sure Large Companies Remember You
One of the biggest tips we have for startups after pitching a large company is to make sure they remember you. Here’s why.
Have you ever finished what you thought was a successful pitch only to have it result in complete silence? No follow-up, no next steps, very little response to your emails? And you’re left wondering why it’s taking the company so long to get back to you?
Read the full blog post to get recommendations about what to do after your pitch (hopefully you followed our tips on how to maximize your first meeting). We also give you some insight into what’s happening behind the scenes when the large company seems to be slow and unresponsive.
Technology Needs
Seeking: IoT Management SolutionsThe National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is seeking IoT Management Solutions to support the use of secure wearable devices. With this mission in mind, NIST must understand ways to manage these IoT devices and apply security best practices to those devices that could assist in reducing the potential risk of security vulnerabilities that impact a first responder’s daily life saving activities. |
Seeking: Safe Processes for Additions of Powders in ProductsA yet2 client is seeking a safe, low-cost process to incorporate powders into their products. They are open to new equipment and methods for powder processing, handling, and storage. Solutions that can mitigate issues associated with flammable dust and powders are also of high interest. |

Technology Needs
Seeking: Digital Dehydration Risk Management DeviceA yet2 client is seeking a digital solution to measure hydration status in order to prevent dehydration and monitor recovery from dehydration. The digital solution would use hydration as an indicator for dehydration risk and be able to collect and transmit data. Solutions which are already in the market as well as in earlier developmental stages are within scope, provided lab or clinical data is available on prototypes. |
Seeking: Discoloration matrials or Technologies that Change ColorA yet2 client seeks technology related to colored materials whose color changes (decolors) by external stimuli. Due to recent demand on sustainability, it is recommended that plastic materials be recycled. However, it is difficult to remove colored components from plastic materials and recycle them as transparent plastics in the waste treatment with various colored materials mixed together. The actual recycled plastics are often colored, and their reuse is limited to applications such as clothing textiles and plant pots, and many used plastics are burned as an energy source. Therefore, this company is looking for technologies that change the color of plastics and improve recyclability. |
