Harris & Harris Group Invests in UberSeq, Inc.

NEW YORK, NY – July 16, 2014 – Harris & Harris Group, Inc. (Nasdaq:TINY), an investor in transformative companies enabled by disruptive science, announced today its investment in UberSeq, Inc. Harris & Harris Group invested $500,000 in UberSeq's Series Seed Financing in June of 2014. UberSeq is a translational genomics company that originated from Stanford University.

"Personalized genomics are now coming through a rapid evolution, akin to that of the semiconductor industry 30 years ago. We believe that this ongoing shift should allow well positioned players like UberSeq to benefit disproportionally from the industry's transformation," said Alexei Andreev, a Managing Director of Harris & Harris Group. "UberSeq is another example of Harris & Harris Group being actively involved in the launching and building of exciting BIOLOGY+ companies addressing real market needs," said Douglas Jamison, CEO of Harris & Harris Group. "Look for us to continue to make these types of investments."
