MindMaze, an EPFL spin-off, Venture Kick Alumnus and venture leader USA in 2009, has entered the world of video games: It used its expertise around a device for the rehabilitation of stroke victims to develop its new system, called MindLeap. The technology allows video game fans to evolve in a virtual environment using thoughts and directly interact through some emotions.

MindMaze CEO, Tej Tadi, presented its new product at the beginning of the month at the Game Developers Conference of San Francisco. His invention (in video here) was a big hit.

The startup also announced having raised 8.5 million francs recently. It hopes to market the new device end 2015. Good news also fell on 18 March: Tej Tadi was named among the Young Global Leaders. These talented young people under 40 are chosen internationally by the World Economic Forum for their professional accomplishments, their commitment to society and their potential.
