Rising Makers is led by young inventors who won a Blue Ribbon at the New York World Maker Faire, were featured in TIME for Kids, and covered in The New York Times. We invested because the products solve real problems.
The flagship product is a peel-and-stick sanitary cover for trash can lids. Once you hear the concept, you immediately think 'why doesn't this already exist?' That's the hallmark of a good consumer product idea.
Young entrepreneurs think differently. They haven't been trained to see obstacles — they see problems and immediately start building solutions. This fresh perspective produces products that experienced entrepreneurs often overlook.
Consumer products represent a significant opportunity. SafeHandle addresses the hygiene and convenience space — a market that expanded dramatically in recent years. With thousands of units ready and national media validation, Rising Makers is positioned for launch.
