We hosted a great discussion yesterday at Daybreak Labs focused on early-stage financing for founders.

Huge thank you to Tim Lew and Stifel Bank for walking through practical considerations—from non-dilutive funding options to how early-stage companies should think about financial strategy.

It’s always valuable to bring founders together in a smaller setting where questions, connections, and real conversations can happen.
Looking forward to more sessions like this soon.

🚀 Women’s Health: The Next Frontier of MedTech Innovation

At Daybreak Labs, we recognize that women’s health is one of the most significant and dynamic business opportunities in the life sciences today.

We are proud to return for our second year as a sponsor of WIB-San Francisco Bay Area pitch competition, supporting the entrepreneurs who are leading this high-growth sector. Last week, at WIB’s inaugural MedTech pitch event, we were thrilled to award lab space to Roni Cantor-Balan, Founder & CEO of Ciconia Medical.

Scaling the Business of Care
Ciconia Medical is a prime example of why the women’s health market is so vital. They are on a mission to:
"End unnecessary invasiveness, pain, and risk during childbirth."

By modernizing maternal care, Roni and her team are addressing a massive global market with a solution that is both commercially viable and socially impactful.

We believe that founders in the women’s health space are building the future of the biotech economy. By providing Ciconia Medical with the physical infrastructure and specialized lab space they need, Daybreak Labs is excited to help accelerate the path to market.

Congratulations to Roni and the entire Ciconia Medical team. We look forward to being part of your growth story!

Last week, Daybreak Labs was proud to host Alameda County Supervisor David Haubert for a life sciences leadership convening organized by Biocom .

I recently sat down with leaders from across the life sciences industry to discuss the future of this vital sector—both here in our district and across the region. Thanks to strong collaboration with Biocom , we brought together organizations including Biocom CA, Bayer, Exelixis, Grifols, Daybreak Labs, Engine Room, Datadabra, Steri-Tek, UniFirst, and Vihayas to explore key issues such as workforce housing, transportation, funding, and the regulatory environment.

These conversations are essential to supporting innovation while also addressing the needs of the broader community. I’m committed to continuing this dialogue, staying accessible to our business community, and working together on solutions that advance opportunity, sustainability, and long-term success for our region.

What do angel investors actually wish founders knew before walking into the room?

We asked. Now we're bringing the answer to you.

On Friday, April 17th, Daybreak Labs is hosting a founders' lunch with two members of Bay Angels — Silicon Valley's second-oldest angel investment group:

George Parrish — Chief Evangelist, Bay Angels. Founder of Entrepreneur Lab LLC. Advisor and mentor to hundreds of startups across the US, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Europe. Instructor at HEC Paris, ESCEN, ESAM universities, and Italian Accelerator INNOVIT.

Simon Ng — Deal Flow Committee, Bay Angels. 20+ years bridging finance, technology, and pharmaceuticals in the Bay Area. Former finance executive turned founder, now focused on helping startups secure funding and build strategic partnerships.

This session is built for founders in biotech, medtech, life sciences, and deep tech who want to understand how angel networks actually operate — before they need to approach one.

We will cover:
→ How Bay Angels is structured and how deals move through the network
→ What the startup evaluation process looks like from the investor side
→ How founders should — and shouldn't — approach angel networks
→ Early-stage funding realities in HealthTech and Life Sciences

Honored to welcome CA State Senator Jerry McNerney to Daybreak Labs for a behind-the-scenes look at the founders building what’s next in life sciences, AI, and industrial technology.

During the visit, we shared how our founders are tackling big, real-world problems:

• Clarica Genomics (Austin So, Ph.D.) is making routine annual cancer screening economically viable by preserving the most informative parts of the blood sample.
• SenCelligent Biosciences (Sherri Newmyer, Ph.D.) is developing ultrasound-activated CAR T approaches to help close the gap in treating solid tumors.
• Inphasol (Justin Boeckman, Ph.D.) is advancing next-generation phage technologies—turning probiotics into cell factories for therapeutic peptide delivery, starting with GLP-1. (Materials shared)
• EquipSight (Jason Hsu) is continuously monitoring industrial equipment and piping with thermography and AI.
• Datadabra (Jennifer Slotnick) is building infrastructure to validate datasets so they can be trusted, reproduced, and reused.
• MosaicRx (Nihit G. Gurram) uses AI to detect polypharmacy-driven risk in geriatric care—helping clinicians prevent avoidable prescribing cascades.
• Lumaegis (Sudhir Subramanya Sabramanya, Ph.D.) is sterilizing medical instruments at the speed of light—in minutes, using no water and significantly less power.

Thank you, Senator McNerney, for taking the time to connect with our community and for supporting the ecosystems that help science become impact.
