Companies meet state legislators
Several of the companies that WTC has supported had the opportunity
to showcase their developing technologies directly to legislators
at the 2003 Association of Washington Business' (AWB) Legislative
Reception. Held in Olympia, this event is one of the largest
gatherings of business leaders and public officials in Washington.
Companies and researchers developed exhibits and product
demonstrations featuring WTC-funded projects. Legislators
could see that technologies are being supported from around
the state. The lawmakers and their guests received hands-on
experience with new and future products from:
- Hyperion Innovations,
Inc., Seattle, cordless soldering tool based on Cold
Heat technology
- InnovaTek,
Inc., Richland, diesel fuel injection system for fuel
cell processor
- MCD Technologies,
Inc., Tacoma, heat transfer technology (Refractance
Window evaporator) for food drying
- RS Medical, Inc.,
Vancouver, bone growth stimulation devices
- VisionGate, Inc., Gig Harbor, optical tomography for cancer
