Team MAGIC is a group of ten founders participating in Draper University, a startup accelerator in San Francisco. As part of the program, our team is required to take on a 5-day wilderness survival excursion. To cover our own food and supplies we need external funding.

We have 24 hours (until Tuesday at 12pm PST) to roam the streets of San Francisco, leverage our networks and collect donations.

No pitch decks. No safety nets. Just execution.

Every dollar we raise funds our food.

No sales = no meals. Simple as that.

This is entrepreneurship stripped down: hustle, creativity, and making things happen fast. Donate to us scrappy founders!

Our team includes nine early-stage biotech and climate tech startups:

NANOPLUME develops space-age bio-aerogel for thermal insulation

Titan Biosciences develops gene therapy for the largest genetic cause of heart disease

CEDA BIOTECH turns industrial wastewater into treated water and valuable products using adaptive microalgae

BeCaps makes bio inputs more efficient and easier to use in agrifood systems through microencapsulation

Cyanamid builds a biological approach to desalinate hypersaline industrialwastewater (oil & gas, mining) using bacterial biofilms

Apricell Biotechnology improves drug discovery and drug efficacy testing using human mimic tissue platforms

Ventrix develops Physical AI to mass produce CO2 feedstock

NanoInGreen redefines nutrition and longevity by transforming traditional ingredients into high-performance bio-nanoparticles

Moby Filters helps businesses cut water costs and stop microplastics at the source
