2025 LaunchVT awardees

VShip is using digital tech to deliver a better way to ship your automobile using the rail system of the United States.  Started by two brothers, Amr and Amhed Aly the company completed the Actuator Program, the accelerator from Black River Innovation Campus in 2024 and recently won in the latest cohort of LaunchVT in the spring of 2025. 

The two brothers hail from Egypt and have spent considerable time in New England.  Amhed is a graduate of Amherst College and the two explained for us why Vermont is for them the ideal place to start their business. 

We explored the problem they are solving using their technology and the benefits to the trucking and rail industries, in addition to what it takes to build a company that employs people.  The pair is raising capital now and have big plans for their company to expand to other sectors.
