Symic is developing a new category of therapeutics that offer an exciting and biologically innovative approach to treating disease. While it is clear that cells play an important role in tissue inflammation and regeneration, it is also known that the extracellular matrix (ECM) plays an equally critical role in maintaining healthy tissue. The ECM is the non-cellular component of the body’s tissues, and proteoglycans are important structural and functional macromolecules native to the ECM that are known to protect against tissue degradation and promote healing during illness or injury. Recognizing the importance of proteoglycans in many acute and chronic disease states, Symic developed a library of proprietary, ECM-specific compounds that mimic the protective effect of natural proteoglycans. For controlled injuries (e.g. incisions, balloon angioplasty), Symic’s ECM-specific compounds allow for local application, enhancing their ability to attenuate inflammation and reduce scarring only at the site of injury. In disease states known for chronic inflammation involving the ECM (e.g. cartilage in osteoarthritis), Symic’s technology can disrupt the cycle of degradation-inflammation by directly targeting and protecting the injured ECM. The ECM plays a critical role in many acute and chronic disease states, many of which have limited or no effective therapeutic options. Symic plans to advance its compounds in a variety of therapeutic areas with unmet clinical needs.
The Center for Professional Innovation and Education is a Wayne, PA-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.

G-CON Manufacturing, Inc.`s prefabricated, turnkey cleanroom systems represent a significant transition to forward thinking in pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical processing. G-CON Manufacturing, the innovator of autonomous cleanroom PODs, turned the challenges experienced by the biopharmaceutical industry into readily deployable, flexible, mobile and scalable cleanroom solutions. PODs are ideal for multi-product sites, rigorous containment needs, and on demand scaling of production and laboratory space. Building on its first design in 2009, G-CON now has a wide array of cleanroom PODs in their product portfolio to accommodate the increased demand from the pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and cell therapeutic industries. Moreover, G-CON`s patent portfolio continues to grow which will effectively preclude imitators from copying G-CON`s initial and more recent innovations. At G-CON, we will continue to evolve and grow with the industry to provide a comprehensive cleanroom solution that truly is flexible, scalable and fast, all for a fair and known price from the time the contract is signed.
