Nextumi, Inc.

Business: Nextumi is developing a "consumer chromosome" technology that will allow it to develop truly customizable searching and networking capabilities. This digital representation of consumer’s online interests includes the ability for software to "learn" the users’ behaviors and associative patterns, creating algorithms to help users more effectively and efficiently reach optimal solutions in an adaptive search for friends, business contacts, products, services, information, and opportunity. This consumer chromosome could also be used to permit participating businesses to target advertising toward selected consumers.
