Open Prem completed the University of Cincinnati’s 1819 Venture Lab accelerator and presented at its spring 2026 Demo Day. UC’s account of the event identifies CEO Tessa Manuszak and Evan Moore as the team behind the company.

The program culminated in six-minute presentations after eight weeks of developing and testing the participating ventures. Open Prem, also an 1819 coworking partner, used the event to present its work on connecting enterprise software.

UC describes the problem as integration technical debt: the workarounds that accumulate when applications don’t communicate well. Open Prem is developing open-source technology intended to help teams bring those systems into a more unified environment.

Completing the accelerator gives the team a milestone in developing that proposition. The commercial test ahead is how well the technology handles the integration work enterprises already have, including the complexity of their existing systems. UC’s report documents the program and the team’s direction.
