Seven start-ups founded by Western Entrepreneurs will take the stage at the 10th edition of Western Angels’ Demo Day, seeking to raise capital from investors and experienced founders from the Western alumni community.
Held in Toronto on June 3, 2025, the seven ventures will present asks ranging from $250,000 to $1 million.
Launched in 2020, Western Angels’ Demo Day is an initiative designed to bring together entrepreneurs and investors from Western to partner and collaborate on creating Canada’s next generation of great companies.
The upcoming event will include a fireside chat with Kevin Sullivan, BA ’80, LLB ’83, President of KMS Capital Ltd., a Toronto-based advisory firm. Previously he held the role of Deputy Chairman at GMP Securities LP, one of Canada’s leading independent investment dealers.
Here's a list of the seven start-ups featured at Western Angels' Demo Day in June:
DOUBL
DOUBL is transforming the apparel industry by replacing standard sizing with fully customized clothing. Their system, TAILOR, uses biometric data from a simple smartphone scan to create made-to-measure garments in seconds.
By first selling directly to consumers, DOUBL is rapidly amassing body scan data and refining its proprietary models. This positions them to be best prepared to capitalize on the shift across the retail industry toward personalized, made-to-measure clothing—a format that improves inventory management, reduces returns, promotes sustainability, and offers a better fit for more confident, comfortable customers.
Following a successful Kickstarter campaign proving market demand, DOUBL is now raising pre-seed funding to accelerate development of their AI models, grow their customer base, and expand into new apparel categories.
DOUBL is founded by Bryn Davis Williams, HBA '18 and BA'18 in Psychology, and Jessica Bosman, HBA ‘17.
sanoLiving
sanoLiving provides personalized virtual healthcare for midlife women, offering menopause and chronic illness prevention through various resources, including AI tools. Their health assistant and clinician decision support track outcomes and deliver ROI to employers.
sanoLiving is led by Angela Johnson and Bogdan Stanescu, and they are seeking $650K.
GreenSage Prebiotics
GreenSage Prebiotics upcycles waste coconut residues into a high-value proprietary prebiotic ingredient that promotes digestive health, supports immune response, and controls bacterial disease. It is a business-to-business company that sells its powdery additive to aquaculture feed companies, pet health companies, and companies that sell supplements, food, and beverages in the human market.
GreenSage Prebiotics was founded by Brad Saville, Sandra Saville, economics graduate Mike Berry, and Selva Kumar Rasiah. They are seeking to raise $3 million.
NovaSonix Healthcare
NovaSonix Healthcare transforms musculoskeletal imaging with NovaVue, an affordable, AI-powered device that delivers high-resolution, real-time 3D ultrasound. NovaVue makes advanced imaging accessible to all clinics, helping patients get faster care while lowering the overall cost burden on the healthcare system.
NovaSonix Healthcare was founded by Randa Mudathir, BS’22, MS’24, Megan Hutter, MSc ‘24, and Emily Lalone, MS’07, PhD’12, and is seeking $750K.
KUBRIC
KUBRIC is building the first agentic AI-powered operating system for the film and television industry—designed to streamline casting, scheduling, onboarding, and payroll across departments
Their first product, Splitting Images, tackles one of the most fragmented workflows on set: background performer booking. Currently in MVP and launching next month, the platform replaces spreadsheets, email threads, and paper vouchers with a single streamlined tool. Built by the team behind Forefront Talent—one of Toronto’s leading background agencies—Splitting Images has already powered the booking of over 15,000 performers on major productions.
Co-founders Jack Copland (HBA ’17) and Simon McGregor are now raising $1.5 million to launch Splitting Images, onboard pilot partners, and expand KUBRIC toward a full-stack, agentic operating system for production.
Lighthouse
Lighthouse builds, operates, and maintains micro data centers that improve grid system reliability and enable renewables integration at scale using nearly 100% surplus clean energy.
Lighthouse is founded by Bachelor of Science alum Mujtaba Khan, and is seeking $4 million.
Cura AI
Doctors in China spend as much time on paperwork as they do caring for patients. This imbalance limits access to healthcare, undermines treatment quality, and forces hospitals to absorb unnecessary costs. Cura AI captures every clinical encounter and instantly populates it into structured, validated medical records while optimizing billing to eliminate costly denials. Doctors reclaim every moment for patient care, hospitals avoid unnecessary losses, and patients receive the timely, thorough care they deserve.
Cura AI is led by Ivey MBA Awaad Aamir, Kevin Lim, Marc Blanchette, Steven Xu, and Aaron Liao, and the company is seeking $400,000 USD.
