“SRT Labs is excited to have Skull Diamond and Heart Capital who joined our Seed Round at the end of 2024. And, we would not have met them if it were not for the My NEXT Raise event. We were thrilled to have met with 8 different investors and, following a detailed diligence process, also supported by NEXT powered by Shulman Rogers, Skull Diamond Heart Capital finalized their investment. I look forward to strengthening the relationships with investors and other founders that I’ve met through the MY NEXT Raise event series.”
Gregory P. Scott, Ph.D., CEO Service Robotics & Technologies
