Perceptive Navigation, LLC is a Maryland-based medical device company developing solutions for the rapidly growing image-guidance market. The company’s core technology provides for a forward-viewing, image-guided interventional system that seeks to significantly improve both the safety and efficacy of millions of procedures per year in the areas of cardiology, interventional radiology, interventional oncology, and emergency medicine. Perceptive’s first product, the Vu-PathTM Ultrasound Guidance System, will initially be approved for central vascular access, a $1B market in the U.S. alone.
NAVAN Technologies, Inc. is an enabling technology company commercializing a novel non-viral delivery platform to radically accelerate genetic engineering of human primary cells. The Nanostraw technology, exclusively licensed from Stanford University, provides direct intracellular access into hard-to-transfect primary human cells for efficient delivery of any cargo. By using a physical, non-perturbative mechanism for delivery, the challenges of viral-based cell manufacturing (time, cost and technical difficulties) are eliminated, resulting in fewer, faster operational steps.

Antidote is a digital health company on a mission. Our aim is to accelerate breakthroughs in potentially life-saving treatments by bridging the gap between medical research and the people who need it. "In a world where 80% of clinical trials are delayed or closed due to lack of awareness, we use cutting-edge technology to match the right patients with the right trials. We’re helping medical researchers make progress, faster – and offering new treatment options to patients in need."
Aegle Therapeutics Corp. is a first in class, Phase 1/2a ready, biotechnology company isolating extracellular vesicles (“EVs”) from allogeneic bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells to treat severe dermatological conditions, including burns and epidermolysis bullosa (“EB”), a rare pediatric connective tissue disorder, and to prevent scarring. Aegle’s EV therapy, using its proprietary platform isolation technology, has the potential to demonstrate a safer, lower cost means of harnessing the regenerative healing power of stem cells. Aegle believes its therapy has the potential for functional regeneration and organization of complex tissue structures that can enhance healing, reduce scarring, minimize contraction and improve overall cosmesis.
