The student led startups participating in the event are:
AEGIS is a gamified platform that teaches cybersecurity awareness through an engaging, habit-driven experience accessible to anyone, anywhere. Set in an interactive city inspired by Ancient Greece and expanding across time and eras, users learn to recognize and respond to real cyber threats through short, practical challenges that go beyond theory. Powered by AEGIS AI, an explainable, human-in-the-loop cyber defense system, users can analyze real-world artifacts like URLs, emails, and files, receiving SOC-grade capabilities directly in their pocket.
Assistay introduces a "Truth Layer" that unifies and verifies information across hotel services, creating the coherent experience guests expect and the foundation of the upcoming Agentic Crew.
Har-V is the organizational memory system manufacturing teams never had. It learns from existing documents, interactions and design history, then delivers the right knowledge to the right engineer at the right moment, before the costly mistake is made.
Misc Robotics offers robots specifically for robotic labs, catering to the specific needs of engineers, professors and students as they develop new ways of making robotic movements more efficient. They do it for cheaper too (most of the time).
Assura is a mobile platform that guides drivers step-by-step on how to proceed immediately after a car accident, enabling seamless information exchange and generating structured reports that improve the insurance claims process.
WAREBOT is an AMR (autonomous mobile robot) designed to optimize internal logistics within warehouses, hangars, and industrial environments. It automates the transport of tools, parts, and materials, reducing non-value-added movement and enabling personnel to focus on higher-impact tasks. Built to be cost-effective and easy to deploy, WAREBOT provides a practical alternative to more complex or rigid automation solutions.
