Roivant Sciences is a global healthcare company focused on realizing the full value of promising biomedical research to improve the lives of patients and their families. Roivant`s mission is to reduce the time and cost of developing new medicines for patients and to share those savings with the broader healthcare system. Roivant is a unique biopharmaceutical company with world-class drug development experts working across multiple clinical and functional areas. We deliver R&D solutions to our partners in the biopharmaceutical industry, helping them unlock value from their pipelines by completing the clinical development of promising drug candidates. Our pipeline spans multiple therapeutic areas through partnerships with academic institutions and pharmaceutical companies, including Takeda, Merck, GlaxoSmithKline, Vertex, Eisai, Arena Pharmaceuticals, Portola Pharmaceutcals, Duke University, and Cincinnati Children`s Hospital Medical Center.
Our mission is to create a new generation of smarter medicines that outmaneuver complex diseases in ways previously inconceivable. To accomplish this mission, we are building a synthetic biology platform that could enable us to program next-generation cell and gene therapies with what we refer to as “gene circuits”. These gene circuits, which are created from novel and proprietary combinations of DNA sequences, are intended to reprogram cells with biological logic to sense inputs, compute decisions and respond to their cellular environments. We are designing gene circuits to improve the “intelligence” of cell and gene therapies in order to enhance their therapeutic effectiveness against a broad range of diseases that conventional medicines do not readily address.
AgriMetis discovers, develops, and delivers innovative crop protection products. Our scientific approach is multidisciplinary and integrated which allows AgriMetis to exploit areas of chemical space and production routes that are inaccessible to others. The AgriMetis platform delivers rapid, efficient, and optimal solutions to challenges in crop protection by bringing innovative products and their production processes to the market faster for the $56 billion agricultural chemical industry.
CombiMatrix Corporation is a Irvine, CA-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Dante Labs is a global genomic data company building and commercializing a new class of transformative health and longevity applications based on whole genome sequencing and AI. Our assets include one of the largest private genome databases with research consent, a proprietary software platform designed to unleash the power of genomic data at scale and proprietary processes which enable an industrial approach to genomic sequencing. Headquartered in Cambridge, United Kingdom, with a research laboratory in Wolverhampton, Dante Labs supported the UK Government`s urgent requirement to scale-up a high-capacity, highly automated testing solution for Covid-19, including infected patients as well as those with antibodies. Dante Labs was able to deliver by leveraging existing technology that had been developed for whole genome sequencing.
