SUMMARY:Presenting: Perlion – The Next Generation of Sun Protection
DESCRIPTION:Perlion (http://Perlion.com) — Co-Founder Logan Chang presenting — is developing advanced sun protection technology to address gaps in current sunscreen performance. \nTraditional sunscreens primarily protect against UVB and UVA II\, but growing evidence shows that UVA I and HEV (blue light) also contribute to skin aging and oxidative stress. These wavelengths can pass through most sunscreens on the market today\, leaving consumers unprotected. While demand is shifting toward “full-spectrum” protection\, the U.S. market lacks FDA-approved active ingredients that can block these rays due to strict regulatory constraints. \nPerlion is developing solutions to bridge this gap and enable next-generation sunscreen formulations that better protect skin from the full range of harmful light exposure. The goal is to empower manufacturers with improved performance without relying on new regulated active ingredients. \nOur target market is sunscreen manufacturers and skincare brands in the U.S. who need enhanced\, full-spectrum protection solutions and are willing to pay for differentiation\, performance\, and regulatory-compliant innovation. \nOur competition is traditional sunscreen formulations\, cosmetic add-ons\, and global brands using non-U.S.-approved ingredients. Our competitive advantage is addressing UVA I and HEV protection within U.S. regulatory constraints\, enabling innovation without requiring new drug approvals. \nThe total market size in 2024 is the global suncare market\, and the total market revenue in 2024 is $15B+. \nTop 3 challenges: \n\nSecuring funding to advance development\nAchieving clarity around regulatory classification and pathway\nDeveloping a benchmark formulation to demonstrate value to manufacturers\n\nOur PitchBoulder ask: We’re looking to connect with the local angel investor community and would value feedback on both our go-to-market strategy and regulatory approach—specifically how to position this opportunity to manufacturers and investors given the constraints of the U.S. sunscreen market.

SUMMARY:Presenting: NeuroGeneces – Measure Brain Health Before Decline
DESCRIPTION:NeuroGeneces (https://neurogeneces.com/) — Co-Founder Karen Crow presenting — is a brain health diagnostics company developing an at-home functional Brain Age assessment to detect cognitive decline before symptoms appear. \nCognitive decline is the top health concern among midlife adults\, yet most neurodegeneration is only detected after symptoms emerge—when intervention options are limited. While up to 45% of dementia cases may be preventable through lifestyle change\, current tools measure structure or biomarkers but fail to assess how well the brain is actually functioning. NeuroInsight\, their flagship product\, uses sleep EEG to measure functional Brain Age by analyzing over 400 validated neurophysiological biomarkers with AI. Results are compared to a large normative database to determine whether the brain is aging normally\, accelerated\, or unusually resilient. By linking Brain Age to modifiable lifestyle factors\, NeuroInsight transforms measurement into actionable prevention. \nOur target market is prevention-focused adults and concierge/primary care practices in the U.S. who need a functional\, early indicator of brain health and are willing to pay for proactive\, data-driven prevention tools. \nOur competition is blood-based biomarkers\, brain imaging diagnostics\, and consumer cognitive testing platforms. Our competitive advantage is a functional measure of brain performance during sleep\, patented EEG analysis\, AI-driven biomarker modeling\, and a prevention-first positioning. \nThe total market size in 2024 is the U.S. brain health and cognitive diagnostics market\, and the total market revenue in 2024 is $10B+. \nTop 3 challenges: \n\nDeveloping effective marketing and sales resources for clinicians\nBuilding a strong pipeline of concierge and prevention-focused providers\nSeamless integration into physician workflow and care models\n\nOur PitchBoulder ask: We’re looking for candid feedback on the biggest business risks or gaps our pitch deck may not address. What would you need to see to consider this investable? We also welcome introductions to concierge primary care\, direct primary care\, and longevity clinics aligned with proactive brain health.

SUMMARY:Startup Workshop & Breakfast: "Modeling the Exit: Understanding M&A Economics"
DESCRIPTION:📣 Calling the Colorado startup community: The best beginnings start at the end\, and we kick off this series by fast-forwarding to a typical startup exit. What actually happens to the money in an acquisition – who gets what\, and why? \nJoin us on Thursday\, January 29 from 9-10:30 AM MT at KO Law’s Boulder office for an interactive workshop that demystifies exit economics in a typical venture-backed M&A transaction. KO’s Ian Kuliasha and John Kyed will break down a standard NVCA Certificate of Incorporation\, decode key economic provisions\, and translate dense legal terms into real-dollar outcomes using an Excel waterfall model. Working through a live example together\, you’ll see who gets paid\, how much\, and why across different exit scenarios. \nThis is not a lecture—participants will receive a sample model in advance and engage in hands-on discussion\, Q&A\, and real-world M&A FAQs. Whether you’re planning an exit now or down the road\, or just want to understand how these transactions really work\, you’ll leave with practical insights you can actually use. We’ll have coffee & bagels as well! \nPlease note: Sessions are educational and collaborative in nature; no legal advice will be provided\, and participation does not create an attorney-client relationship or attorney-client privilege.
