Our H2A teams have been busy!
Cohort News
At H2A, we want to celebrate the continued accomplishments of our teams.
Here is what our teams have been up to:
Laptis
Laptis is revolutionizing access to substance use treatment by connecting treatment seekers and providers, addressing a fragmented, inefficient referral system that costs billions and claims hundreds of thousands of lives annually.The company began with hands-on care coordination, directly managing referrals to understand the system's flaws. Since launching, Laptis has gained significant traction, operating in four hospitals and other major organizations, and winning the Harvard-wide Shark Tank Pitch Competition judged by Kevin O'Leary.
Gridify
Gridify, formerly known as Aionergy, marks its first anniversary as part of the H2A 2023-2024 cohort. The team has made significant strides in advancing its mission to build the digital infrastructure to enable a net-zero world through its innovative technology solutions. Over the past year, Gridify has been rapidly testing their product hypotheses by speaking to potential users, prototyping, and pivoting. Recently, the team spent several weeks in New York City participating in the Antler Accelerator program. During this period, they received firm problem validation after engaging with 50+ customers in under a month and are now focused on building a minimum viable product. Today, they have successfully acquired their first client, completed the Pilot Program with Avangrid, and have finished top 10 at the Climate Symposium Pitch Competition. Their team has since expanded as they have now welcomed three additional members to their team, Dmitrii Zakharov, Christie Yu, and Alanis Carmona.
