Dear
Mr. Kelly:
This
letter is provided in response to your letter dated February 12, 2020 (the “Comment Letter”) regarding the above-referenced
submission of Odyssey Semiconductor Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”). The Company’s responses are set forth
below to the items noted by the staff in the Comment Letter. Please note that for the convenience of the reader, the words “we,”
“us,” “our,” and similar terms used in the response below refer to the Company.
As
of the same date of this letter, the Company is also submitting Amendment No. 3 (the “Amendment”) to the above-referenced
Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”) in order to make revisions pursuant to the Comment
Letter.
Amendment
No. 2 to Registration Statement on Form S-1
Selling
Stockholders, page 48
1. We
are unable to determine how you calculated the number of shares being registered for
resale by stockholders who received their securities at the company's formation in paragraph
(d) on page 3 of your response letter. Please provide additional support for your calculation.
Response:
We identify the following selling stockholders as persons who received securities at the Company's formation. The table below
includes a breakdown of the shares (which they received at the formation) being registered in the Registration Statement:

For the purpose of this response, this column only includes shares which these holders received in the formation of the
Company. For example, it does not include shares which received by some of them in a private placement of the Company or shares
of common stock underlying warrants.
The
Company has a total of 11,159,661 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Therefore, paragraph (d) on page 3 of our response
letter dated January 31, 2020 stated: “These selling stockholders are seeking to register for resale up to an aggregate
of 983,333 shares, which constitute approximately 8.81% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares.”
2. Disclosure
in the table that Mr. Tompkins is the beneficial owner of 707,333 shares of the company's
common stock is inconsistent with your representation in paragraph (c) on page 2 of your
response letter and the disclosure in the principal stockholder table on page 46. Please
reconcile the disclosures on pages 46 and 49. In general, it appears that you may have
revised the column under the heading "Shares Beneficially Owned as of the date of
this Prospectus" to reflect the shares offered by the prospectus rather than the
total number of shares beneficially owned. In addition, it appears that the column under
the heading "Shares Beneficially Owned After the Offering" may need to be revised.
Finally, it is unclear to us why you have revised footnotes (4), (8), and (9) to change
the number of shares that each individual received at the formation of the company. Please
advise or revise.
Response:
Pursuant to your comment, we have revised the disclosures in the table of Selling Stockholders and related footnotes.
Thank
you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Odyssey
Semiconductor Technologies, Inc.
