Xsensio is a Swiss digital health company, which focuses on monitoring early warning of health changes. The company develops the unique Lab-on-Skin™​ sensing platform for next-gen wearables. It senses in real-time biochemical information at the surface of the skin, providing unprecedented real-time information about our health and wellness, in a minimally-invasive way. Xsensio is a B2B company, offering Lab-on-Skin™ solutions for remote patient monitoring at home and in the hospital.

Regulus closes the critical gap between long-range strategic systems and the last few hundred meters of point defense, providing the autonomous last line of defense against drones and other uncrewed threats. Regulus C-UxS solutions redefine modern defense against uncrewed threats with AI-powered, decentralized mesh and point-defense systems and networks. Our soft-kill EW Ring family and the DART hard-kill interceptor can each be deployed as independent products; powered by LeC2 and Orchestra - our autonomous mesh command-and-control network - they seamlessly connect to create Ring Origami, an integrated close-in defense layer that detects, coordinates, and neutralizes current and future close-range threats in real time - with no person on the loop. While most defense startups focus on tactical-range interception (2–5 km) - an approach whose effectiveness is rapidly eroding as threats harden, communications improve, and autonomy and maneuverability increase - Regulus is building the resilient, close-range shield modern forces need around them. Strategic systems such as lasers, missiles, and other long-range interceptors remain essential for extended-range defense, a domain dominated by primes due to its complexity, cost, and long development cycles; Regulus complements these systems by securing the final meters. Built on unmatched combat experience and hundreds of combat-proven systems, Regulus is creating a scalable, multi-domain C-UxS architecture designed to outpace emerging threats. As defense and homeland security markets accelerate their demand for next-generation autonomy, Regulus is positioned to become a new-era defense leader - driving the counter-uncrewed revolution and defining the future of intelligent defense infrastructure.
