Medical Simulation Technologies is a startup company, established for the commercialization of advanced medical simulators, especially in the field of cardiology. The technology that we provide results from many years of research. The key to our success is an open mind and a team of professionals, which is why our company is composed of a multidisciplinary group of experts: programmers, hardware specialists and medical professionals. We do believe that this gives us advantage in innovation, quality, and a focus on practical solutions. Heart failure, or generally cardiovascular disease is still the leading cause of death. Overall quality of examination, proper diagnosis and difficult surgery success rate could be greatly improved, if the specialists had the opportunity of practical training using a faithful simulation platform. In opposite to every other simulator presents in the market, MST has developed the simulation platform based on a realistic heart model from Computed Tomography (CT). Thanks to that, a user can practice on artificial patient and can have the feeling of real examination or surgery.

Computational Life Inc. develops a software that provides valuables flow and pressure dynamics throughout the body fluid system based on validated physical laws. The company provides a Digital Avatar Platform (DAP) that simulates the human and animal body through modern mathematical models. The company simulates arterial and venous systems, heart dynamics, microcirculation, pulmonary circulation, cerebrospinal fluid, and brain interstitial fluid. Computational Life Inc. was founded in 2018 and is based in Wilmington, Delaware.

SIMA is made up of a robotic body that in conjunction with your smartphone, through an app, becomes a fully interactive social robot capable of listening, moving and expressing itself to provide a playful experience that stimulates both play and learning.

Extreme Simulations specializes in high-fidelity medical simulation tools aimed at training first responders, military organizations, and homeland security personnel in emergency incident management. The company's innovative products are a result of expertise in animatronics, robotics, and emergency training, and have been validated by institutions such as United Rescue and the Sheba Medical Center. Central to their offerings is the First Responders Simulation Management Training System (SMTS), which integrates a multi-purpose physical simulation platform with a software management tool. This system comprises robotic wearable units, medical simulation kits, and an operating system designed to enhance training effectiveness. Additionally, the platform includes a comprehensive package with a blood pump system and simulation blood, controllable via an app, enabling real-time assessment of emergency situations. Through its proprietary hardware and software, Extreme Simulations aims to reduce preventable death rates in healthcare by improving the skills and life-saving knowledge of medical and security professionals.

MPMsim is a developer of advanced simulation software tailored for the gaming and movie industries. The company has created a unique meshless structural analysis tool that addresses the limitations and inefficiencies commonly found in competing solutions. By utilizing a hybrid Lagrangian-Eulerian non-linear explicit dynamics solver, MPMsim's software allows clients to produce realistic animations and special effects with greater ease. The platform significantly simplifies the workflow by eliminating the need for labor-intensive tasks such as meshing and CAD de-featuring, which are typically required in design processes. This innovative approach provides users with a more efficient means of developing prefabs and enhances their creative capabilities.

TFC Simulations is a Swiss company active in the manufacture of high quality simulators for the automotive, aviation and construction industries.

Sputnik means “satellite” in Russian, and its real life counterpart was launched to explore space. A robot keeps the spaceship in working condition. Suddenly, there is an accident and an asteroid hits the Sputnik. All data was lost and the user must fix it and reprogram the robot. We'd like to spark people's interest in programming. By playing, users learn the basics of logic thinking and main concepts of programming so they'll be prepared to rapidly learn any programming language.
