A 3D nano-imaging company built around CU �鶹ӰԺ technology and faculty just  from Luminate, an international startup accelerator focused on next-generation optics, photonics and imaging. 

“We’ve been watching Double Helix’s progress with great interest, including their 2016 , so we could feel this coming,” said Brynmor Rees, Director of Technology Transfer at CU �鶹ӰԺ. “This achievement exemplifies the traction we’ve seen across many CU �鶹ӰԺ startups, which have collectively raised over $300 million in the last two years.”

Double Helix Optics is an exclusive licensee of the university and was founded based on technology from the lab of company co-founder Rafael Piestun, professor of electrical, computer and energy engineering. The company applied to the Luminate program to help scale its operations and extend its reach into life sciences, drug discovery and machine vision markets.

“Double Helix serves as a model for spinning a research innovation out of the lab,” added Rees. “It’s a great time to follow in those footsteps. Emerging Technology Transfer resources, like the Commercialization Academy, Lab Venture Challenge and mentor network open the door for researcher-entrepreneurs to create a greater impact through their innovations.”
