Unima — Unima is decentralizing rapid testing across industries by taking diagnostics out of the lab to the place these are needed the most to secure a timely diagnostic for everyone, anywhere.Unima is solving is the centralization of lab testing, which limits the access to a timely diagnostic for billions. Current technology for diagnostics is veryprecise and can detect almost any disease known, but the problem is these require labs with expensive equipment and specialized technicians making lab testing impossible to scale up to provide universal and timely access to diagnostics.To solve this problem Unima developed Find, a rapid testing technology platform for real time diagnostics which allows anyone to diagnose a disease directly where it is needed, without using lab equipment, with results in 15 minutes or less and at a very low cost. With Find anyone can have access to a timely diagnostic even in the most remote areas of the world.The Find platform uses shark antibodies modified with genetic engineering to detect disease biomarkers in blood, saliva, urine or water samples. These shark antibodies are used in microfluidic cards and generate a visual reactions when in contact with specific biomarkers of the disease to be tested. Then to evaluate the result of the test, a picture of the testing card is taken with the proprietary Xplora smartphone app which runs image analysis process and neural network algorithms to generate an inmediate result. Then this result,along with contextual information like geolocation, date and time, is sent to a cloud server where it can be used for real time disease tracking.

X-COR was the runner-up in the 2018 Harvard President’s Innovation Challenge with its device, a novel consumablehybrid cartridge that removes CO2 from patients’ blood with less invasive procedures than high-flow alternatives. X-COR is part of the 2018 MedTech Innovator and MassChallenge cohorts.X-COR’s core technology is a patent-pending medical device that allows physicians to remove excess CO2 from patients who are in symptomatic lung failure and its accompanying control algorithm that is based on machine-learning techniques. The system is compatible with existing medical device infrastructure for ease of use and deployment. Unlike other technologies to treat lung failure, X-COR uses a hybrid approach that allows patients’ blood to be drawn at <300 ml/min flows through small catheters that can be placed by nursing staff. This therapy is more affordable, safer, and more accessible than existing comparable extracorporeal devices that often require >3 L/min flows and highly specialized physicians.
