Congratulations are in order for Babylon Micro-Farms! The company brings sustainable hydroponic farming to anyone, in anyplace, with their self-contained, low-cost micro-farms. In March, the company was named to Time's list of the top US greentech firms, coming in at #73 of 100! That's amazing recognition for Alexander Olesen, Graham Smith, and the entire team!

Lighthouse Labs alumni company Fourplay, which lets pairs of singles connect with other pairs on double dates, recently appeared on a billboard in Times Square in NYC. How cool is that (Julie Griggs and Danielle Dietzek have the best reactions - to see them, go to https://buff.ly/4c7qs3G ).

At Lighthouse Labs, we're all about finding companies that are making waves in whatever industry they're in, and Fourplay Social is mixing it up for dating apps.

We're always impressed by the places Lighthouse Labs companies turn up! Recently, three alumni founders hit the speaking circuit: Parlay founder Alex McLeod spoke on a panel at the Fintech is Femme Founders Summit, Athlytic founder Ashton Keys was at SXSW, and Icarus Medical Innovations Evan Eckersley shared more at the LSI Medtech Conference.

We love seeing you all spread the word about what you're doing - congratulations!

Congratulations to Lighthouse Labs alumni founder Keya Wingfield - her Bombay Spice Potato Chips recently won the Best New Product award at the Virginia Food & Beverage Expo. The event is a celebration of Virginia’s specialty crafted food and drink industry, and has been hosted by the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (VDACS) since 1992. It's THE place for Virginia producers to connect directly with buyers representing major grocery stores, specialty gift and gourmet shops, restaurants, schools, food service and tasting rooms.

Congratulations!
