- Metafuels — Our breakthrough sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) technology, aerobrew™, will make affordable net-zero aviation a reality. The technology is innovative, highly scaleable and able to tap into future global renewable energy systems efficiently. Starting from renewable feedstocks including green hydrogen, driven by renewable electricity, andsustainably sourced CO2, for example from direct air capture, aerobrew™ provides an efficient route to large-scale production of e-kerosene, overcoming the scale up challenges and high costs of alternative e-fuels technologies. aerobrew™ is also compatible with the biogenic route whereby the carbon required for the process is derived from renewable and sustainable cellulosic biomass which, does not compete with the food chain (wood, miscanthus, etc.). With a high carbon conversion, high selectivity and a high overall SAF yield, aerobrew™ leads to attractive production economics and cost leadership. With a rapidly growing demand for SAF, aerobrew™ stands to contribute significantly to the decarbonisation of global aviation and to support the achievement of net zero 2050 targets.

- Lymphatica Medtech — Lymphatica Medtech is a medical device development company developing a minimally invasive solution for chronic lymphedema.Lymphedema is the chronic swelling that generally occurs in the arms or the legs.Lymphedema is most commonly caused by the removal of or the damage to the lymph nodes as a part of cancer treatment. It results from ablockage in the lymphatic system, which is part of the immune system. The blockage prevents the lymphatic system from draining excess fluids, and the fluid buildup leads to swelling, infections, and pain.Unfortunately, there is no cure for lymphedema. It can be managed with early diagnosis and diligent care of the affected limb, through daily compression, bandages, and manual drainage sessions. From the moment of the diagnosis, the life of lymphedema patients changes forever.Cancer and cancer-related interventions (i.e. surgery, radiotherapy) are frequent causes of lymphedema occurring both in the upper and lower limbs. Breast cancer survivors are at high risk for developing lymphedema, as well as patients treated for melanoma, pelvic and head and neck cancer or other cancer treatments that require lymph node dissection. Physical trauma can also result in lymphedema, a major cause of lymphatic disease among wounded veterans.Lymphedema is associated with significantly impaired quality of life, skin changes, increased risk of infection and in rare cases lymphedema itself may undergo malignant transformation.Lymphatica offers a permanent solution that will allow patients to regain their normal lifestyle.
