| Poxel is a dynamic biopharmaceutical company developing innovative drugs for metabolic diseases, with a focus on type 2 diabetes and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Based in Lyon, France, Poxel was spun out in 2009 from Merck Serono, a global leader in the field of metabolic disorders at that time.They believe that targeting cellular energyregulation pathways for the treatment of metabolic diseases, including type 2 diabetes is of critical importance as disbalances are at the root of those diseases. All three of their clinical stage pipeline programs address significant targets in the energy metabolism pathways. Imeglimin, their lead program, targets mitochondrial dysfunction, mitochondria being the power station of the cell, PXL770 activates the adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK), an important energy sensor, and PXL065 (DRX-065) inhibits the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (MPC). | Post-IPO Debt / Aug 08, 2022 | ||

| SpineGuard is a French innovative medical company dedicated to the deployment and adoption of DSG® (Dynamic Surgical Guidance), powerful radiation-free real time sensing technology platform that spans a broad spectrum of skeletal applications from bone drilling instruments to automated placement of bone implants. Uniquely positioned to change thegame in orthopedic robotic surgery. Devices, built with the DSG technology, give real-time audio and visual feedback to the surgeons to secure and streamline skeletal implant placement for the benefit of patients, surgeons, operating room staff and healthcare providers. The PediGuard probes are the only devices with built-in DSG capability to improve the accuracy of pedicle screw placement. The PediGuard probes are handheld tools used by spine surgeons to perform pilot holes in the vertebrae before pedicle screw placement. An electrical conductivity measurement sensor, located at the tip of the drilling instruments, alerts the surgeon in real time and without using X-Ray imaging, about changes in conductivity that occur at the transition between cancellous bone, cortical bone and soft tissues/ blood. These devices are used in surgeries for all kind of patients, from pediatric in deformity corrections to adult in degenerative diseases requiring internal fixation. The PediGuard devices are available in different diameters and shapes (straight, curved, cannulated and Threaded). Our new product, The DSG® Connect App, allows collection and visualization on a tab of the signal measured at the tip of DSG Connect devices during pedicle drilling. These medical devices have assisted spine surgeons in accurately placing pedicle screws in over 80,000 spinal procedures around the world. With mounting clinical evidence (16 major Peer-Reviewed publications) confirming its efficacy, PediGuard devices are becoming a compelling answer to the clinical needs associated with safe and accurate pedicle screw placement. | $7M / Post-IPO Debt / Sep 13, 2018 | ||
