COLLEGE PARK, Md., April 8 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The University of Maryland today announces nine finalist teams for the University of Maryland $75K Business Plan Competition.

Finalists present their ideas to a panel of new venture experts on May 8, from 1:30 to 4:30 p.m., at the University of Maryland, College Park. The competition is managed by the Maryland Technology Enterprise Institute (Mtech).

Finalists in the Information Technology Category include:

  • FlexEl LLC: has developed a proprietary battery that packs more energy per square centimeter than any other rechargeable flexible thin-film battery in the world. It also recharges at extremely low voltages, enabling it to take advantage of energy scavenging techniques not feasible with other batteries. Finally, unlike other rechargeable thin film batteries requiring expensive semiconductor processing equipment, they can be manufactured using a cost-effective printing process. Because of these unique attributes, the FlexEl battery is especially well-suited to power a wide range of ultra-small electronics, including wireless sensor networks, implantable medical devices, RFID devices, and smart cards.

Team: Marty Peckerar, professor, department of electrical and computer engineering; Neil Goldsman, professor, department of electrical and computer engineering; Zeynep Dilli, research associate, department of electrical and computer engineering; Josekuttan Manikathuparambil, graduate student, master's program in telecommunications.
