Thank you for your early support helping us complete the SleepSpace vision of&nbsp;creating the smart sleep bedroom of the future and improving every human's sleep.&nbsp;We are going to launch publicly in just a few weeks. We just shot our pitch video and product demo and have almost wrapped up our Android client, SleepSpace Smart Bed, and updated iPhone software. The iPhone app with an Apple Watch is currently one of the most accurate sleep tracking apps available and can uniquely measure cortical arousals, deep sleep, and REM - important measures of sleep quality. Beyond tracking, we just recruited two new sleep coaches with expertise in baby sleep training and in ways to address snoring.&nbsp;Some other updates over the last few months:&nbsp;1) Institutional Investment:&nbsp;&nbsp;Hatcher+ and Quake Capital invested follow on funding into the round, having invested >$250K total in SleepSpace (see more).&nbsp;2)&nbsp;Applied for an additional 300K in non-dilutive grant funding from NIH.&nbsp;3)&nbsp;First large SAAS contract selling 4000 units to a major mattress company.4) Featured In:Well + Good&nbsp;(1,066,705 UVM)&nbsp;featured&nbsp;French&nbsp;Quarter&nbsp;Inn and SleepSpace’s partnership in an article titled “18 Buzzy Hotel Partnerships Paving the Way for *All* Travel To Be Wellness Travel”.Popsugar in reference to validating the Kin Euphorics beverage titled, "How Does Kin Euphorics cofounder Jen Batchelor Sleep at Night?Dr. Gartenberg speaking about the technology to NY Media Lab Summithttps://www.growthisland.com/blog/https://www.saatva.com/blog/ted-talks-about-sleep/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzQDsJPTnREhttps://www.nycmedialab.org/events-archive/nyc-media-lab-summit-2021TEDX Gateway:&nbsp;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOqGNEBLjCc
