Bionic voice company Laronix, which featured on this year\u2019s Australia\u2019s 50 Most Innovative Manufacturers list, has been selected among the new cohort for the Google for Startups Accelerator: AI First program.<\/p>\n

According to an update on Google Australia\u2019s blog on Thursday, the program is \u201cdesigned to help Australian startups building AI and machine learning solutions grow rapidly and responsibly\u201d.<\/p>\n

Laronix said on Linkedin: \u201cWe have developed AI-powered artificial larynx devices with a key mission in mind: to allow individuals affected by voice loss to speak, sing, and laugh again. The recognition from Google is a powerful reminder of why we do what we do and how far we have come.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cOver the next 10 weeks, we will be collaborating with the amazing Google mentors alongside an inspiring group of founders, pushing the boundaries of what\u2019s possible with AI in healthcare and beyond. We\u2019re excited for the journey ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 2025 cohort of ten ANZ startups (two from New Zealand) includes workplace safety and \u201cphysical AI\u201d business Presien, drug testing and development company Gelomics, and materials science company Atomic Tessellator. The whole list can be viewed here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
