Getting science out of the lab and into the hands of those who need it the most is a daunting challenge. Ruben Hallali, cofounder and CEO of HD Rain, was up for it: he turned his cofounder’s thesis into an impactful startup, providing rain measurements and forecasts at high resolution, based on an innovative technology. As average temperates rises, and as acute hazards such as heat waves and floods grow in severity and frequency, entire populations are at risk. It is now more than ever the time to bridge the gap between academia and startups.
