About

Upsurge Labs is a next-generation innovation lab operating at the intersection of AI, robotics, and biotechnology. We believe in pushing the boundaries of what’s possible by blending first-principles thinking with daring, “weird” ideas — and then bringing those ideas to life through real-world prototypes and systems.


Our mission is to reimagine the future by building deep-tech solutions that challenge conventional paradigms. Through our research and development efforts, we aim to shape new possibilities in healthtech, biotech, robotics, and computation — turning bold hypotheses into tangible impact.
