Brown University has become a big player in tech innovation. In this episode, we’ll meet some of the game-changing companies they’ve helped develop and talk about how you can meet them at their Innovation@Brown showcase, which happens September 26. Adept Materials makes paint that helps regulate moisture in ever-more energy efficient but air-tight houses - and yes, that can be a problem. Derek Stein is CEO and a former physics professor at Brown University, and Brian Demers is part of Brown Technology Innovations and they are working together to spread the word on this incredible technology. They join David to tell us about Adept, and about the Brown ecosystem which is discovering and promoting this kind of revolutionary technology. For the investor prospective on what’s happening at Brown, we welcome Thorne Sparkman, the Managing Director of The Slater Fund, a not-for-profit seed fund dedicated to supporting new venture development in Rhode Island.
