Our Portfolio Companies
Our portfolio companies are enabling the future of biotechnology, cell and gene therapies, vaccines and regenerative medicine.
The Future of Pathology
Alpenglow Biosciences reimagines pathology by providing a full-stack solution to nondestructively image large tissues in 3D at sub-cellular resolution. Its novel chemistry, patented high-throughput light-sheet microscope, and cloud-based AI analysis software adds a new dimension to pathology
Combining coding and biology to provide human cells for research, drug discovery, and cell therapy
Biomedical innovation and a new generation of cures through precision engineered human cells. bit.bio combines the concepts of coding and biology to provide human cells for research, drug discovery and cell therapy, enabling a new generation of medicines.
Revolutionizing analytical testing For the benefit of people’s health
Bionter AG addresses a challenge faced by the biopharmaceutical industry, minimizing the amount of costly sample required to determine particle count as part of analysis. The device reduces the overall sample volume required, saving material for other analytical endpoints, hence reducing costs. Its smart automated workflow drives efficiency, minimizes human interaction and therefore improving reliability, data integrity and in turn patient safety.
DELIVERY OF GENE EDITING PAYLOADS FOR CELL AND GENE THERAPIES
CellFE Biotech is enabling the next generation of cell and gene therapies by efficiently delivering gene-editing payloads with high throughput, and preserving cell function and viability.
Integrating Human Cells, Systems, and Data
Curi Bio’s preclinical discovery platform combines human stem cells, systems, and data to accelerate the discovery of new medicines. The Curi Engine is a seamless, bioengineered platform that integrates human iPSC-derived cell models, tissue-specific biosystems, and A.I./M.L.-enabled phenotypic screening data.
RNA SPLICING ANALYTICS + ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE FOR DRUG DISCOVERY
Envisagenics' mission is to reduce the complexity of biomedical data to accelerate the development of innovative therapeutic solutions through RNA splicing analytics and artificial intelligence.
REAL-TIME CELL ANALYSIS
