AlephBot
AlephBot is developing a new paradigm in healthcare, the procedure monitor.
The solution helps medical teams maximize treatment efficiency during and after medical procedures (e.g., resuscitation, labor, general anesthesia). It provides the team members with valuable real-time information that is adaptive to their actions and to the procedure’s stage, even if they are under pressure or can’t recall procedure steps by heart. AlephBot also automatically documents the medical procedure, which serves for both medical education and medico-legal purposes.
** AlephBot uniqueness **
We capture the human perspective of a procedure by analyzing the relevant info from the on-going structural medical conversation. We add this layer to the data collected from other sources.
Therefore, we gain higher accuracy of the analyzed medical situation, which enables us to identify the procedure stage and provide meaningful info, in real-time.
** Status **
AlephBot is developing its core technology. The company, pre-seed funded, was selected to the DRIVE accelerator at the Technion (Israel institute of Technology), and received grants from the Israel Innovation Authority.
AlephBot cooperates with big and small hospitals from day one. This serves our intention to increase treatment efficiency both in mega-hospitals in big cities and in smaller ones in the periphery and rural areas.
AlephBot is active in its target markets (Germany, France, Italy and the US) and won several national and international (France, Germany, Denmark) events and competitions. The company is still not active in China - an opportunity!
** Next steps **
We are currently looking for seed investment to finalize our core technology development and bring the product to clinical trial stage in two years. Sales are planned in three years, post regulation clearance.

CEOGenervon Biopharmaceuticals
Genervon Biopharmaceuticals discovered an endogenous embryonic-stage regulator, Motoneuronotrophic Factor (MNTF), and developed from it the pleiotropic drug GM6. Chronic inflammation is associated with a broad spectrum of neurodegenerative diseases related to aging. GM6 simultaneously modulates multiple biological mechanisms (MOA) in the CNS and immune system to increase neurogenesis and lower inflammation. The MOAs include oxidative Stress, protein aggregation, kinase dysfunction, cholinergic signaling, extracellular matrix stability, and intrinsic apoptosis. GM6 reduces Beta Amyloid and phosphorylated tau in AD, reduces SOD1 in ALS, and reduces inflammation in animal models. GM6 passes through the blood-brain barrier and has good drug-like properties. GM6 has been studied in a Phase 1 and two Phase 2A trials and was shown to be safe and tolerable with positive clinical outcomes and favorable shifts in biomarkers SOD1, Tau and TDP43 in patients. A complete CMC package is ready for technology transfer.

maintect is developing an innovative antibody treatment for a new target instead of the well-known VEGF in wAMD (wet age-related-macular-degeneration, one of the most frequent causes of blindness). This new antibody will help the patients who don’t benefit from anti-VEGF treatment and all others. maintect applied already for patent in several countries. Combination with anti-VEGF is also an option. In parallel, the company is developing a companion diagnostic kit using lateral flow assays for anti-VEGF treatment in wAMD. This test will determine which patients will benefit most from the new treatment and will facilitate the market entrance. Furthermore, the company is interested in contract research and collaborations in building diagnostic kits.
