Discovery Laboratories, Inc. is a specialty biotechnology company focused on advancing a new standard in respiratory critical care. Discovery Labs` technology platform includes its novel proprietary KL4 surfactant, a synthetic, peptide-containing surfactant that is structurally similar to pulmonary surfactant, and its proprietary drug delivery technologies being developed to enable efficient delivery of aerosolized KL4 surfactant and other inhaled therapies. Discovery Labs` strategy is initially focused on neonatology and improving the management of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in premature infants. Discovery Labs believes that its RDS product portfolio has the potential to become the new standard of care for RDS and, over time, enable the treatment of a significantly greater number of premature infants who could benefit from surfactant therapy that are currently not being treated. In many pulmonary diseases, including RDS, acute lung injury (ALI), and other respiratory conditions, surfactant is either deficient or may fail to function properly. Our precision-engineered, peptide-containing KL4 surfactant has been designed to mimic the essential function of human pulmonary surfactant and may have the potential to address conditions such as these. We are developing our proprietary delivery technologies to one day enable efficient, targeted upper-respiratory or alveolar delivery of our KL4 surfactant in aerosolized form to allow for a gentler, less invasive delivery approach. These same delivery systems may also potentially be used to deliver a variety of additional aerosolized medicines safely and in a simplified way compared with the current standard of care.

Forus Health is a medical technology start up founded in 2010 by a group of engineers with the goal to eradicate avoidable blindness. Over the years Forus Health has designed and developed affordable technology solutions to increase access and affordability of eye care. Our first product 3nethra classic is a compact and portable non-mydriatic fundus camera used for capturing digital images of the posterior (retina) and anterior (cornea) segments of the eye. The device is used for identifying common eye problems such as diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, ARMD, cataract etc. The device is also integrated to a cloud based telemedicine platform which enables remote diagnosis. There are 40 million people who are blind globally, and 15 million live in India. The high incidence of blindness in India is due to a combination of several issues, but mostly due to limited access to eye care facilities, high cost of treatment/surgery and lack of awareness. The objective of Forus Health is to use technology to increase access, bring down the cost of diagnosis(affordability) and raise awareness (the three As). The key to our solution is not just the technology, but the way in which we have designed the deployment of the product.
