A Recap of TMAP

A Recap of TMAP



The NIST-wide Technology Maturation Accelerator Program (TMAP) for 2021 has just occurred, bringing with it a variety of innovations to the forefront of the NIST spotlight. TMAP was designed to provide a platform for NIST researchers to pitch cutting-edge technologies to venture capitalists and business experts, with the winners to receive funding to accelerate their projects toward the market. This year’s event came with a variety of NIST researchers from multiple NIST labs presenting projects that covered a spectrum of technical fields. There were eight NIST presenters who each had ten minutes to pitch the commercial opportunities of their technologies, and they were:


Aly Artusio-Glimpse - “Self-calibrated Embedded Microwave Sensor"
Abdella Battou – “Multiverse - Network Automation Platform for Emerging Network Technologies"
Steve Brown - “Toward Commercialization of a Hyperspectral Image Projector for Optical Medical Imaging"
Kevin Douglass – “Vacuum-Fixed Length Optical Cavity”
David Ferraiolo - “Fine-grained Data Sharing Infrastructure"
Daniel Gopman - “Ultrahigh Density in Memory Compute Chips using Advanced Magnetic Memory Devices"
John Marino - “RNA-based Nterminal Amino Acid Binding (rNAAB) Reagents for use in Next-Generation Protein Sequencing Devices”
Wes Tew - “Advanced Refrigeration Platform for Triple-Point Cells"

There were four TMAP judges this year who each came with a wealth of knowledge and work experience in getting emerging technologies to market.  The judges were:
