Singularity University, the technology think tank and incubator, on Wednesday announced a new accelerator program that aims to push technologies out of research facilities and into the real world.
SU Labs Accelerator’s portfolio boasts companies whose ambitious goals range from restoring vision to the blind to deploying lithium-ion power to schools in the developing world. Such lofty aspirations are normally the purview of storied academic institutions, but Singularity, which is not an accredited University, is uniquely positioned to achieve this as a cross between a think tank and a teaching institute.
