CEO & FounderImmunoBiochem
ImmunoBiochem has pioneered a proprietary technology to address the challenges of cancer heterogeneity and tumor penetration by biologics in solid tumors with its tumor microenvironment-targeted potentiated antibodies. ImmunoBiochem's biologics are aimed at targets amplified in the secretomes of cancer cells that enable selective and efficacious delivery of payloads in tumor cells, immune cells and tumor-supporting stroma within the tumor microenvironment. ImmunoBiochem is able to deliver novel immunomodulatory payloads to a variety of cell types within the tumor in a highly selective fashion, pioneering a next-generation strategy for the delivery of innate immune system modulators.
Anton Neschadim
DirectorIncuron, Inc.
Incuron is a private clinical-stage company that develops a novel class of synthetic small molecules, Curaxins, with a unique multi-targeted mechanism of antitumor activity. These chromatin damaging agents interfere with histone/DNA binding causing decondensation of chromatin in tumor cells, functional inactivation of histone chaperone FACT, and simultaneous effect on a set of universal previously undruggable targets, leading to inhibition of pro-cancer transcriptional factors, MYC, NF-kB, HIF1a, and HSF-1, and activation of the tumor suppressor p53, as well as induction of type I interferon response.
Key advantages of curaxins based on current preclinical and early clinical data include:
- novel mechanism of action that would bring the additional treatment option for advanced and relapsed tumors, as well as potential to overcome resistance to previous treatments;
- favorable pharmacology and manageable safety profiles;
- low potential for serious drug-drug interactions providing opportunities for combinatorial therapeutic regimens;
- broad activity in different tumor types that may open wider market opportunities;
- focused phase 2 clinical study program can establish faster clinical proof of concept and build toward accelerated regulatory approval.
Incuron owns a worldwide patent portfolio, including the composition of matter and therapeutic uses of the compounds.

iNNOGING Medical - Remote and offline ultrasound image analysis solution
Ultrasound is a real-time examination and very much operator dependent.
Majority of ultrasound scans are done by technicians and afterwards diagnosed off-line by the expert without the presence of the patient. A major drawback is that the radiologist who determines the diagnoses is not the person who performs the ultrasound scan; hence this workflow might lead to errors and worse to misdiagnoses.
iNNOGING is developing a technology that will provide the radiologists a remote and off-line tool to inspect areas of interest, based on recorded ultrasound scans. Allowing navigation like in real time as if the patient is there with the doctor, while all possible information (any plane) of an organ is visible, even information that was not presented in the original scan.
In addition to the above, we have recently launched an affordable SaaS based Ultrasound Simulator.
