Arch Air Medical is a Saint Louis, MO-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
ValenTx was founded with the goal of treating some of the most pervasive health problems of our time: obesity and obesity-related metabolic disorders such as type-2 diabetes and hypertension. Our approach is to create a non-surgical, endoluminal bypass device that builds on the success of established medical interventions, resulting in a highly effective and least-invasive therapy. Current treatments for these diseases include surgery, pharmacology, and medically supervised lifestyle management. The risks, costs, and in some cases poor efficacy of these treatments have hampered their broad adoption by patients, physicians, and payers alike. A truly unmet clinical need exists for a therapy that can deliver the efficacy obtained through surgery, but without the risks and costs associated with surgical intervention. The ValenTx endoluminal bypass therapy mimics the attributes of a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and is implanted through a non-surgical, endoscopic procedure. This procedure does not require gastric stapling or permanent changes to the patient`s anatomy. The device is removable, replaceable and designed so that the physician could change the therapeutic profile, thereby optimizing the treatment towards the individual patient`s needs. ValenTx has developed a strong intellectual property portfolio, which lies at the foundation of this therapy. The company has successfully conducted a series of clinical studies demonstrating the viability, safety, and efficacy of the therapy.

SpineFrontier Inc. is a growing medical device company that designs, develops and markets implants and instruments that equip surgeons to perform the least invasive spine surgery. SpineFrontier`s innovative and disruptive technologies and techniques apply the Less Exposure Surgery (LES) philosophy to solve clinical problems and make the surgeries safer for the patient and easier for the surgeon. Surgeries can be done in an outpatient center and patients can be discharged same day with rapid recovery, due to less disruption of normal tissues and less time in surgery. We believe LESS is more. LESS time in treatment and recovery is MORE time in action for our patients and surgeons. SpineFrontier is headquartered in Beverly, Massachusetts. It was founded in 2006, and released its first products in 2008. SpineFrontier is a KICventures portfolio company and the exclusive manufacturer of LESS technologies and instruments for surgeon members practicing in the LESS Institute global outpatient network.
