General Prognostics (GPx) - GPx is pioneering a novel AI platform to develop, validate, and deliver bloodless blood tests to effectively remotely monitor complex chronic diseases. Blood tests are often time-consuming, expensive, and painful, and GPx’s solution removes these barriers while providing continual remote monitoring
Pegasi - The company is on a mission to reduce the time it takes to diagnose and treat a cancer patient in the developing world by half. Time to treatment and delays in diagnosis lower the chance of survival for cancer patients, and these issues are particularly prevalent in developing countries. Pegasi’s information platform negates data fragmentation and allows for better communication and more robust treatment plan creation.
Munevo - Munevo is a company that produces assistive technology devices, such as powered wheelchairs and exoskeletons, for people with mobility impairments via smart glass technology. The company’s main product is an electric wheelchair that uses sensors built into the smart glass application to translate head movements into control signals. These signals are then forwarded to the wheelchair’s control unit using an adapter. This enables hands-free control of the wheelchair. Users can also navigate through other products, including phones, monitors and home functions, using head movements as an add-on purchase
