Welcome to another bonus episode of the Tech Name Ride Home, another portfolio profile episode.

0:10.0

Today we are going to talk to one of the most exciting technology companies that we've invested in in the Right Home Fund and a very timely one considering what's going to be happening over the first half of this year we believe.

0:28.0

We're going to be talking to the founders of Nanome, which is a VR company, but a very specific type of VR company.

0:40.0

Actually, let me let the founders do it.

0:42.0

First of all, Kata, introduce yourself.

0:46.2

Hi, I'm Kata Funakawa, I'm the COO and co-founder of NANO.

0:51.0

And Steve. Yeah, hey, I'm Steve McClosky, CEO, I'm co-founder of Nanum.

0:57.0

So when I say that it's a unique sort of thing, it is because this is VR but doing really cool science shit.

1:06.1

So whoever wants to take this away,

1:08.7

give me the two minute sort of elevator of what Nanome does and why it's cool science

1:14.8

shit like I said. Yeah definitely so at Nanome we're building the ultimate

1:20.0

interface for science starting with molecular data so it's kind of like you know the

1:24.8

Jarvis hologram interface that you've probably seen in Iron Man when Tony Stark

1:28.8

makes a new atom but it's real you know we use off the shelf virtual and mixed reality hardware and you could like download us on the

1:36.2

Quest store and so we make software for those devices.

1:40.3

Now at the very, very basic fundamentals, you know, if you strip away a lot of the other kind of features, right?

1:46.0

One of the most kind of killer basic things, and as I like to describe it, is like it's kind of like those chemistry kits that you might have used in high school except you never

1:55.2

run out of parts in VR and AR and then on top of that you can apply some crazy simulation algorithms you can

2:00.8

connect it to supercomputers and see the atoms and molecules wiggle and jiggle.

2:06.3

And so combining that with the latest in AI advancements in chem informatics, it's a really, really powerful tool for researchers to make

2:14.8

breakthroughs in AR&BR. So this is for chemists, for biologists, for people working with molecules, you know, down at the

2:26.8

atomic level or whatnot. The so essentially when you say like the the tonal the one where you can't
