Axiom Real-time Metrics is a Oakville, ON-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Lower Valley Ambulance is a Cheswick, PA-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Eccrine Systems, Inc., is focused on the development of non-invasive disposable electronic patches that accurately measure and transmit real-time data about human sweat. Applications for our technology and IP span market opportunities within medicine, industry, and sports. We seek to establish exclusive collaborations with downstream partners who understand the opportunity for embedding and deploying our technology in their market-specific applications. Our role in these collaborations is the modular development and prototyping of desired sweat sensor features and capabilities. Our partners embed our technology in their commercial applications and translate data about sweat and other biometrics into high value products for their customers.
Protagonist Therapeutics is a biotechnology company pursuing the discovery and development of target oral peptides as well differentiated alternatives to antibodies, and also as new chemical entities (NCEs) against those targets and life threatening diseases for which suitable small molecule and/or biologic options are not available. Peptides typically suffer from limitations of poor proteolytic stability and therefore find scarce therapeutic utility that is largely limited to ‘injectable drugs’. Protagonist’s technology platform is aimed at overcoming these restrictions and expanding the scope of peptide therapeutics to address unmet needs. Specific emphasis is placed on identifying ‘orally stable’ scaffolds and/or engineering oral stability characteristics onto them. The platform has been optimized over the years and involves synergistic integration of rational drug design, diversity oriented computational tools, phage display libraries, recombinant peptide expression, ex vivo oral stability methods, and peptide/medicinal chemistry techniques. This activity has led to the identification of ‘privileged scaffolds’ with favorable oral stability characteristics. Furthermore, the technology platform is well suited both for de novo discovery against a target and optimization around a given chemical starting point.
Acorda Therapeutics is a publicly traded (NASDAQ: ACOR) biotechnology company whose mission is to develop therapies that restore neurological function and improve the lives of people with neurological disorders. We started our company in 1995 as a network of scientists, physicians and business people with a common belief that sharing ideas and information could lead to innovative medical advances for people with neurological disorders. We have since evolved into a commercial-stage biotechnology company, successfully developing and commercializing important therapies that advance the care of people affected by neurological conditions. We achieve our goals by: • investing in research and development • collaborating closely with the patient, medical and scientific communities • retaining employees with compassion and commitment Acorda has been voted one of the best companies to work for in New York for the past five years in a row, as a result of our dynamic environment, strong corporate culture, significant emphasis on research and development, and a robust product pipeline. We are positioned to be an industry leader, poised for exceptional growth.
