Welcome the 2019 Class of Futureworks Entrepreneurs

Oonmo – a modern wellness companion
New York City is as diverse in its dreams as it is in its people. And there’s no better industry to express imagination than through 21st-century hardware. The combination of digital fabrication machinery and advanced circuitry means that physical products can be as playful and creative as our minds. Smart urban dog houses? Never existed – until DogSpot. Solar-powered phone chargers designed to look like stained glass? Never heard of that – until Grouphug. Paper-thin insoles that predict diabetic foot ulcers? Never possible – until BonBouton.
Companies like these are what make Futureworks Incubator so unique. We don’t focus on a sector – pet-tech, health-tech, ed-tech, IoT – we support an entire ecosystem. In December, we introduced our 15 Futureworks Fellows startups. Now, the NYCEDC x SecondMuse program welcomes 58 Futureworks Entrepreneurs who are pushing the city ecosystem forward. That’s a lot of ideas, so check out a quick summary on each, and look out for much more in the months to come.
