The 平特五不中 Engine continues to offer the Startup Internship Program that was created in 2020 to help provide mentorship and learning experiences for 平特五不中 students over the summer. Six听平特五不中 Faculty of Engineering affiliated early-stage startups were selected to train and supervise an intern for 12 weeks.
The selected interns are from the Faculty of Engineering, Faculty of Arts, and Faculty of Science and each of them will have the opportunity to collaborate with both the startup and a mentor at the Engine Centre to ensure a well rounded learning experience during the internship.
Thanks to our generous alumnus donors John D. Thompson and Engineering Class of 1980, we have been able to听continue the Startup Internship Program to provide our students with an experiential learning opportunity within our startups over this summer.

is a 平特五不中 spin-off founded in 2022 by chemical engineers and bioengineers with one core mission: bridging the gap between cells and surfaces.
is focusing on three components to improve endometriosis care: (1) screening for endometriosis biomarkers indicative of the disease with an at-home rapid test kit (2) tracking biomarkers, symptoms, and intervention responses over time with an app and (3) connecting doctors and patients by providing quantitative screening results and qualitative symptom in a user friendly and relevant format. Our goal is to speed up the diagnosis process and improve patient鈥檚 quality of life by helping them find customized treatment solutions.
provides consulting and turn-key solutions for implementation cell contractile force measurements by selling consumable cell culture plates and licensing software. Contractile force measurement platforms from Live Cell Technologies Canada offer simplified and rapid cellular force measurements, which provides clients with unprecedented insight into cell health, function, and response to candidate compounds. This clarity decreases the cost, time, and risk in preclinical trials pharmaceutical screening.
is a natural, sustainable, clean, safe and highly effective mosquito repellent using mangrove leaf extract to repel all species of mosquitoes.
Rezo Biomedicals is a young startup venture working towards improving treatment for type 1 diabetes. With our novel biofabrication technology, we have built a biomedical device that can be filled with insulin producing cells and vascularized to create a connection with the recipient鈥檚 blood circulation. Once transplanted, our vascularized bioartificial pancreas will be able to provide physiological insulin delivery thanks to the encapsulated cells.
PreFab Photonics is a startup venture that specializes in the use of modern machine learning methods to predict and correct nanofabrication errors in photonic integrated circuits.
