ElevateBio is a technology-driven advanced therapy contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) powering the creation of life-transforming therapies. The company helps biopharmaceutical partners design, develop, and manufacture therapies from early discovery through commercialization. Combining proprietary gene editing tools and services, cGMP manufacturing capabilities, and industry-leading expertise, ElevateBio is enabling partners advance a breadth of therapeutic approaches and modalities including cell therapies, gene edited therapies, RNA therapies, mRNA vaccines, and more.

Valerio Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biotechnology company based in France and the US that develops new drugs by targeting tumor DNA functions through unique mechanisms of action in the field of DNA Damage Response (DDR). DDR consists of a network of cellular pathways that detect, report and repair DNA damage. Applied to oncology, this new field of research aims to weaken or block the ability of tumor cells to repair damage to their DNA, either naturally or under the effect of cytotoxic treatments. Focusing exclusively on intracellular DNA-binding targets, we design and develop first-in-class treatments for oncology and inflammatory diseases precision therapeutics from preclinical (translational) research to human clinical proof-of-concept studies. It thus leads its programs to the most value-creating and attractive inflection points for potential partners. The Companys portfolio is based on platON™, Valerio Therapeutics decoy oligonucleotide platform. PlatON™ is intended to generate new compounds based on an unparalleled DDR decoy mechanism and capitalizing on the expertise the Company has developed on this type of oligonucleotides. The Companys portfolio includes: - AsiDNA™, a first-in-class product interfering with tumor DNA break repair, based on a decoy agonist mechanism, unmatched in the DDR field, which could, among other things, combat tumor resistance. AsiDNA™ is in clinical development in several trials, in combination with PARP inhibitors or in combination with radiation therapy. - A new family of compounds are positioned as a new-generation PARP agonists that are designed not to induce resistance and to activate the immune response. VIO-01, is currently being optimized in a preclinical phase. The Company is convinced of the significant therapeutic potential of its technology and the disruptive innovation it represents, which could pave the way for a new paradigm in cancer and inflammatory disease treatments.

Sensorion is a pioneering clinical-stage biotechnology company which specializes in the development of novel therapies to restore, treat and prevent within the field of hearing loss disorders Its clinical-stage portfolio includes one Phase 2 product: SENS-401 (Arazasetron) progressing in a planned Phase 2 proof of concept clinical study of SENS-401 in Cisplatin-Induced Ototoxicity (CIO) and, with partner Cochlear Limited, a study of SENS-401 in patients scheduled for cochlear implantation. Sensorion has entered into a broad strategic collaboration with Institut Pasteur focused on the genetics of hearing. It has two gene therapy programs aimed at correcting hereditary monogenic forms of deafness including OTOF-GT, targeting deafness caused by a mutation of the gene encoding for otoferlin, and hearing loss related to mutation in GJB2 gene to potentially address important hearing loss segments in adults and children (GJB2-GT).

Orthobond is an antimicrobial technology company that has developed proprietary antimicrobial nanosurfaces, with broad applications in the medical device industry and more such as commercial, industrial, automotive, and beyond. We’re the first company to utilize nanoscale surface modifications that can be permanently bound to any surface, killing bacteria, viruses, and fungi by mechanically rupturing pathogens without using antibiotics.

Protagenic Therapeutics is a biotechnology company based out of 1625th Ave, New York, New York, United States.

We have created a portfolio of novel neuropeptides that are in various stages of development and pre-clinical evaluation for the treatment of stress-related disorders.
