CEO and Co-Founder of Wisdom Partners - We help high impact leaders make their dent in the universe. Specifically, we help startups scale up. Never climb alone!
Last Wednesday was the Early Stage Founders & Funders in Health & Sports Tech event in Walnut Creek. Of the 6 companies in the pitch competition, 3 were Wisdom Partners clients: Ricardo C. Berrios of Adhera Health, Tanuj Sharma of Kana Health Inc., and Kevin Hoil Yoo of Haptic. All of the presenters did great, but Kevin and Haptic won first, and Tanuj and Kana tied for runner-up. Thanks to Jon Gregory & Chris Rudberg of Five Star Bank - California, Bob Linscheid of Walnut Creek Chamber of Commerce, Asli Gozoren of Band of Angels, Jared Asch of Capstone Government Affairs, and Paul Ratner of Marble Bridge Funding Group for planning a great event and giving Wisdom Partners the chance to help.

We are proud to announce that the United States Patent and Trademark Office has officially granted Haptic our new patent: “Systems and Methods for Haptic Navigation”. This patent cements our leadership in haptic navigation technology, protecting our ability to provide vibration-based guidance systems that dynamically adapt to a user's orientation and movement, delivering real-time tactile feedback for seamless navigation. This milestone builds on our previous patent, "Vibrating Haptic Device for the Blind", which secured our early innovations in wearable haptic technology that assists users by transmitting directional cues through vibrations. Haptic pioneers intuitive haptic technology designed for everyone, with a global impact in mind. Starting with navigation, we’re shaping a future that’s not just seen or heard, but felt. #Haptic #TouchTheFuture #Innovation

The Head of Accessibility at LinkedIn Jennison Asuncion impressed by Haptic - this means the world. Thank you!
Presenting Haptic as one of the top finalists at TechCrunchDisrupt was a pivotal moment to share our vision for the future of navigation - where guidance isn’t just seen or heard, but *felt. Our HapticNav's touchbased navigation technology sets a new standard for accessibility and user experience - ideal for industries focused on creating seamless, intuitive journeys. Standing next to a distinguished panel - Erin Harkless Moore, CFA, Andrew Schoen, Mark Crane, Haomiao Huang, PhD, and Christopher Wan. We demonstrated live how Haptic’s solutions are setting the course for more inclusive, immersive, and efficient mobility across diverse sectors. A sincere thank you to Enzo Caruso, Isabelle Johannessen & Michael J Schick for your support. We’re shaping a future where innovation drives impact, and I’m grateful to have you as part of the journey! #Haptic #technology #impact #techcrunch #navigation #ridesharing #smartcity #accessibility

Out of thousands of applicants, Haptic has been selected as a finalist to battle it out on the Disrupt Stage TechCrunch in San Fransisco. Less than 1% of applicants to the Startup Battlefield program are selected as a Top 20 Finalist, making it one of the most competitive startup programs in the industry. Haptic is proud to be one of them and share their story with the world. Haptic reimagines how people interact with their technology. Starting with navigation, Haptic uses vibrations to make navigation intuitive and universal. Since the launch of Google Maps & Apple Maps, very little has changed, and people rely heavily on sight and sound to know where to go. This is outdated and not the long-term solution, and that's why Haptic is here to showcase their tech to the world. #techcrunch #startupbattlefield Kevin H Yoo Enzo Caruso
