Athleon Wins SEBA Best Pitch!
The University of Washington SEBA (Science and Engineering Business Association) put on a Science and Technology Showcase Event sponsored by some VC firms in the area at my old home ‘Balmer High Commons’ at the UW Business School…and Athleon won best pitch (and a nice deposit for our new bank account)!
The companies presenting were all very interesting, and all more scientific than Athleon, but as a tech company we fit the bill and had a good time pitching and having conversations with all sorts of interesting people. The overall winner went to two women who had done research at the University on using saliva instead of blood to preform medical tests. Makes everyone who hates needles jump for joy.
