Founders is a startup studio. Together with exceptional entrepreneurs, we build companies from scratch and scale them as independent companies when they gain traction. Whether it’s a bank for freelancers, a way to kill the pain of doing expenses or reimagining life in cities, we are always on the lookout for opportunities to improve the way people work and live. We created Founders in 2012 because we strongly believed there was a better way to build tech companies. Our vision then and now is to refine a model that enables us to co-found successive companies on a single platform that gets smarter with each success and failure. We believe in launching early and iterating fast, knowing that failing is just part of the process on the road to success.

QuantrolOx is an Anglo-Finnish deep-tech startup, spun out of the University of Oxford in 2021 and now headquartered in Espoo, Finland. We build AI- and machine-learning-based control software that automatically tunes, stabilizes, and optimizes qubits, the fundamental building blocks of quantum computers. The problem: Unlike classical computers, which run reliably for years with no intervention, today's quantum computers require constant manual tuning by highly trained quantum physicists just to keep qubits calibrated. Qubits are extremely sensitive to noise and drift, and as systems scale from dozens of qubits to the hundreds of thousands or millions needed for useful computation, this manual tuning problem grows exponentially harder. As a result, quantum labs spend most of their time and expert talent maintaining hardware instead of running computations or advancing the science. Why it matters: This tuning bottleneck is one of the biggest practical barriers standing between today's experimental quantum computers and commercially useful machines. There simply aren't, and never will be, enough expert physicists to hand-tune millions of qubits one by one, so without automation the industry cannot scale. Our solution: QuantrolOx's software runs on classical hardware alongside the quantum system, continuously monitoring and adjusting many parameters in real time, on microsecond timescales. It is technology-agnostic and can be applied across different qubit platforms, though we have initially focused on solid-state qubits, where we've already demonstrated clear improvements in tuning speed and machine uptime. By automating this process, we free up scientists' time, increase the useful operating time of quantum computers, and remove a key bottleneck to scaling the entire field

We are on the mission to reinvent civil engineering for a sustainable future. We are building a one-stop shop for the design and engineering of structural assets. We are leveraging AI, cloud technologies, parametric modelling, geotechnologies, structural engineering, remote sensing (wind and terrain data) and big data to reduce the cost and time of structural design and analysis. We strive to optimize engineering structures to reduce carbon footprint and have identified strong reduction potentials. Our ambition is to build a B2B SaaS product house for structural engineering within several industries such as telecom, wind, solar and power. Our founding team possesses world-leading expertise within the telecommunication industry, therefore we are starting off by targeting this field. We believe that we have identified a niche with a truly global potential. We have launched the first version of our software that we have sold and delivered to customers represented by Europe’s largest telecommunication provider (Vantage Towers) as well as completed an integration with one of the largest asset management platforms (Atrebo). We have attracted international VC investors, established a strong advisory board, and are now looking for team members! Check out: shapemaker.io

Meili FMS is a fleet manager for mobile robots with a vendor-agnostic approach. It enables operators to collate their diverse fleet onto one platform. By using Meili FMS, our users can finally use their mobile robot fleet to its full potential by orchestrating their fleet as a collective, regardless of the robot’s application, brand, or type. Our main mission is to eliminate interoperability pain points that have started to cast a shadow over the robotics industry. With more businesses adopting robots to carry out inventory management, material handling, and other applications, fleets are becoming more diverse. Robot manufacturers can hardly keep up with this growing demand, which means that companies will be deploying robots from various brands — with different operating systems. This is where the problem arises. Currently, robot manufacturers develop their own FMS, which means minimal to no correlation between systems. In other words, the robots cannot communicate amongst each other, causing delays in operations, accidents, and collisions — ultimately increasing operation costs while diminishing safety and efficiency substantially. Frightfully, this problem may cripple the whole supply chain, with business owners starting to question their decisions on expanding operations with robots — as a result, stagnating the entire mobile robot market. There is a need for a universal third-party solution that can bridge the gap and enable seamless operation for the robots to function collectively rather than individually. At the same time, by having an overview of the whole fleet, robot management becomes much more effective. And that’s where we come in, with several important features: automated traffic control, smart task allocation algorithms, operator analytics, and unified mapping. With Meili FMS’s automated traffic control feature, robots in the same environment will operate in a safer and more organised manner — not only between individual robots but also between them and human-operated vehicles. Too often do robots navigate the facilities without a payload as the current solutions do not facilitate task queuing effectively, therefore wasting energy by needless travel or lengthy idle time. Using smart tasking algorithms, Meili FMS can help improve companies’ sustainability records as the robot fleets will no longer operate without a payload and wasting any energy. Furthermore, our pricing plans are very accessible to early-stage or small businesses. This will definitely lower the entry barriers, allowing businesses of any size to start investing in robots and automation, which facilitates the growth of the robotics industry.
