CHF 150,000 to redefine regenerative medicine through protein engineering: Orio Therapeutics wins final stage of Venture Kick. Congratulations and best of success to founders and EPFL alumni Ziad Julier and Mikaël Martino!
https://lnkd.in/d3eT4p4N

About: The limited clinical success of many protein-based therapeutics is often due to poor delivery systems. The injected molecule diffuses quickly away from the injection site, which represents a significant challenge, especially in regenerative medicine where local action is crucial for tissue regeneration and repair. Orio Therapeutics addresses the issue by allowing precise control over medication delivery. By modifying therapeutic proteins to incorporate a built-in delivery system, the method ensures they remain at the targeted injection site.

About: Few aspects impact businesses more than regulation. However, monitoring and reporting on public affairs is a tedious and time-consuming task for companies. Leveraging proprietary AI technologies, DemoSquare is offered as a SaaS platform to collect, monitor, analyse, and report on legislative and political activities, allowing public affairs managers to save up to 16 hours a week.
