  • Renovacor — Renovacor is a preclinical‑stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing transformative gene therapy‑based treatments for cardiovascular disease.Renovacor’s lead program is a recombinant adeno-associated virus (AAV)‑based gene therapy for patients suffering from dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) due to mutations in the Bcl2‑associatedathanogene 3 (BAG3) gene.Dilated cardiomyopathy is a condition affecting over 3 million patients in the US and growing steadily. Many patients develop DCM due to ischemic heart disease. Recently subpopulations have been identified that develop DCM due to mutations in specific genes that have been shown to result in the development of DCM. One of these specific genes is the BAG3 gene. The prevalence of disease‑causing BAG3 haploinsufficiency is estimated at approximately 35,000 individuals in the United States, representing an orphan disease by FDA guidelines. It is estimated a similar number of DCM patients with BAG3 mutations exist in Europe. These patients are typically younger and progress to end-stage heart failure sooner than patients with ischemic heart disease. Currently, DCM patients with a BAG3 mutation are treated with standard of care for heart failure. Despite improvements in pharmacotherapy and care, the five‑year survival of a patient with DCM is only 50%. The development of a BAG3 gene replacement therapy for patients with DCM that carry BAG3 mutations could potentially prevent the progression of disease in this otherwise healthy population of young adults.

Portfolio highlights

  • Clastix — Clastix is an enterprise Kubernetes infrastructure company, purpose-built to solve the operational challenges that emerge when Kubernetes runs at scale: cluster sprawl, fragile multi-tenancy, and the mounting cost of over-provisioned hardware and memory. The company's breakthrough is architectural. By combining hosted control planes with hard multi-tenancy, Clastix enables telcos, cloud providers, MSPs, and platform teams to run many isolated Kubernetes environments more efficiently, securely, and cost-effectively than traditional approaches allow. Clastix was founded by engineers who understood these pain points from direct experience running Kubernetes in production. That same commitment to quality engineering runs through everything the company builds – an approach shaped as much by Italian engineering tradition as by technical rigour. The result is infrastructure software that is functional, elegant, and highly scalable. The company's open source credentials are equally strong. Clastix donated Capsule to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation, co-founded Cloud Native Days Italy, and continues to evolve Kamaji – contributing not just code, but community and standards to the broader Kubernetes ecosystem. Clastix's platform is trusted by customers including NVIDIA and Mistral AI – organisations that operate some of the most demanding and innovation-intensive infrastructure environments in the world. Their confidence is a direct measure of what the platform can handle. Headquartered in Naples, Italy, with customers and partners across cloud, data centre, edge, and AI infrastructure globally, Clastix is where world-class engineering meets the real operational complexity of modern Kubernetes at scale.

  • Kanu AI — Enterprises are setting ambitious engineering goals as AI coding agents become mainstream - but teams are already hitting a ceiling. Existing agents still require engineers to guide them one project at a time, and they can’t operate inside your AWS, GCP, or Azure environment, leaving deployment, testing, and infra integration as manual work. KanuAI solves this by running inside your cloud accounts - building, deploying, and validating application and cloud infrastructure autonomously. Engineers provide architectural input, enabling Kanu to learn from their decisions and align with your workflows. This lets a single engineer oversee 10+ projects at once.

  • E-Plato — Socrate is a “Google-like” search engine, but with a fundamental difference: while Google finds information on the public web, Socrate operates within a company’s private data, directly where it is installed.Our main differentiating factor in the market is the guarantee of complete data sovereignty: our clients' data never leaves theircorporate infrastructure. We do not use any external services that would require sharing data; everything happens locally, in total security. The platform can be installed on-premise, even in fully offline environments, thus ensuring maximum compliance with corporate policies and the most stringent security requirements.In addition, Socrate is equipped with specialized modules for analyzing technical documentation, such as manuals, diagrams, and procedures, which requires a very different approach compared to standard documents. This allows us to offer highly accurate search performance in complex environments, such as those typical in the manufacturing and technical sectors.Another advantage is the ability to automatically classify documents before indexing them, improving content organization and making it easier to navigate and access the most relevant information.Finally, the new Business Intelligence features make Socrate a strategic tool for the continuous improvement of corporate documentation: - Relational topic graph: allows visualization of the connections between various topics covered in company documents. - Continuous learning from the corporate environment: if the system is unable to answer a question, the user can send a request via email. The response received is automatically acquired as new knowledge within the platform, in the “Contributions” section. - When a significant number of contributions have been gathered, the system automatically generates a report highlighting gaps in the documentation and suggesting areas for improvement. - Additionally, the company can use the BI dashboard to view the thematic areas that receive the most frequent questions, thus gaining valuable insights for internal support, training, and knowledge management.
