Elastrin Therapeutics is a UK and US-based biotech developing novel therapies to reverse cardiovascular disease. Its underlying technology was developed by Dr. Naren Vyavahare during the last 20 years at Clemson University, in collaboration with Dr. Charles Rice. Our team built a proprietary platform that targets and restores degraded elastin by removing the harmful calcification that stiffens arteries.

Revel Pharmaceuticals is a biotechnology commercializing therapeutic enzymes to degrade age associated molecule damage. We are targeting pathological age associated compounds known as Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs) which build up on long lived proteins like collagen. AGE accumulation is implicated in multiple diseases of aging, thus Revel Pharmaceuticals is strategically position to develop therapeutics across multiple indications.

LIfT Biosciences is a biotech bringing to market a first-in-class alpha neutrophil cell therapy that overcomes the limitations of current therapies in solid tumours by destroying tumours both directly and indirectly. LIfT’s Immunomodulatory Alpha Neutrophils (IMANs) turn the tumour microenvironment against the tumour as they recruit the rest of the immune system to destroy the tumour to give a durable response and lasting immunity. The patented breakthrough N-LIfT platform is produced from a patented process using exceptional stem cells (iPSC or HSC), a proprietary enhancement media and genetic engineering (e.g. CARs). The resulting CAR-IMAN cells give cancer patients potentially hundreds of times the cancer killing ability they naturally possess. The company is working with a range of pharmaceutical license partners to develop a portfolio of CAR-IMAN cell therapies to deliver complete remission across all solid tumours before the decade is out. LIfT BioSciences was founded by Alex Blyth following the death of his mother to pancreatic cancer. See www.liftbiosciences.com. We are now speaking to syndicate partners for our forthcoming Series A POC Clinical Trial, and co-development partners for commercialisation.
