Coverage gaps

  • Additional animal-health / pet-tech companies around KC–Lawrence–Manhattan

    Companion Protect is covered; deeper KU/K-State corridor companies still missing.

  • More KC logistics / supply-chain software scale-ups

    Bungii covers bulky delivery; broader distribution-hub SaaS still thin.

  • Oracle Health / Cerner-adjacent health IT spinouts

    Historic KC enterprise software gravity; not yet structured as startup profiles here.
