Rutgers startup SubUAS LLC presented at the 2026 Venturium Academic Venture Showcase!

The virtual, half-day event hosted by Northeastern University Center for Research Innovation provided startups from academic institutions across the U.S. that are actively raising a pre-seed or seed round to drive development and commercialization the opportunity to present and pitch to an audience of venture capital, venture studios, accelerators, incubators, and industry.

SubUAS has developed The Naviator: a drone that can seamlessly transition from the air to underwater and back again. It is robust enough for repeated transitions and is able to work in a variety of weather conditions and underwater currents. Read about the Edison Patent Award Javier Diez and Marco M Maia received in 2022 for their innovation: go.rutgers.edu/edison-patent-awards-2022

The Rutgers Research's New Ventures team nominated SubUAS to present at the event, where it was joined by startups from Center for Technology Licensing at Cornell University (CTL), Cal State University - Long Beach Office of Research and Economic Development, UK Innovate at the University of Kentucky, PCI Ventures, Vanderbilt Center for Technology Transfer and Commercialization, and Washington University in St. Louis Office of Technology Management.
