At Proof, we believe that knowledge is power—and good health is a necessity. We`re a health technology and diagnostics company that is currently developing a cutting-edge, CRISPR-based platform for point-of-care facilities to test for COVID-19, with ambitions to transform in-home diagnostics across a broad spectrum of health applications in the future. Proof is the brainchild of Professor Feng Zhang, a world-renowned molecular biologist and leader of a research lab at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard. In early 2020, Dr. Zhang along with Dr. Jonathan Gootenberg and Dr. Omar Abudayyeh of the McGovern Institute pivoted their focus towards combating the emergent threat of the COVID-19 pandemic. Pioneers of the CRISPR gene-editing technology, the three scientists dropped everything to face the global public health crisis head on. Combining CRISPR and RT-LAMP technologies in a novel approach, our scientific team is developing a simple, streamlined molecular diagnostics platform that can quickly test for the presence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Intended for use within clinics, pharmacies, schools, workplaces and eventually homes, our easy-to-use, lab-quality test platform is undergoing rigorous R&D protocols so that we can provide fast, accurate diagnostics that will help communities take control of their health. We want to transform the anxiety of waiting days for COVID-19 test results into the peace of mind of quickly knowing what steps to take next. Our first test system, which we`re designing to detect SARS-CoV-2, will enable us to fulfill our mission of helping restore a degree of normalcy to our world. From there, we aim to transform personalized health, and expand our diagnostic platform to detect other diseases, with the goal of providing actionable health information that will allow people to lead better, healthier lives.

ApiJect Systems, Corp. is reimagining how injectable medicines can be packaged and delivered to the world. ApiJect`s technology platform is based on a design philosophy of basic interlocking components to create simple and highly-scalable drug delivery devices. Our first product is the ApiJect Prefilled Injector, a single-dose parenteral that is manufactured in two parts: a Blow-Fill-Seal (BFS) Container aseptically filled with medicine or vaccine, and an insulin-style Needle Hub, also made by ApiJect. At the point of care, a healthcare worker attaches these two components in seconds to activate the injector. By using high-speed, high-volume Blow-Fill-Seal plastics technology, we can reliably supply millions of aseptically filled prefilled injectors per month. Simple devices like these will enable ApiJect to fulfill its mission of making injectable medicines safe and available for everyone.

Turner Imaging Systems has a long history of miniaturizing technologies for the healthcare space. Our latest innovation is the truly portable mini C-arm, the Smart-C The Turner Imaging Systems Smart-C is a mini C-arm X-ray system designed to provide physicians with realtime general fluoroscopic visualization of adult and pediatric patients. It is intended to aid physicians and surgeons during diagnostic procedures, therapeutic treatment or surgical procedures of the limbs, extremities or shoulders, including, but not limited to, orthopedics and emergency medicine. The Smart-C is intended to be used on a table or other hard, flat surface. It may also be used with the optional support stand.
