Vijay! Deep Shikha selected as a winner of CCEI’s Pitch Night

We’re thrilled to celebrate Deep Shikha’s success at UConn CCEI’s Get Seeded Pitch Night!

Deep and Team AeroGraphiX secured funding for their groundbreaking work on graphene-modified HEPA filters. By leveraging solvent interface trapping to coat glass fibers with graphene, they’re pushing the boundaries of air filtration technology with enhanced performance and antimicrobial properties.

This achievement showcases how fundamental research in materials science can translate into innovative solutions for real-world challenges. From the lab bench to the pitch stage – we couldn’t be prouder!

Congratulations, Deep Shikha!!!
