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.

  • 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.

It is possible to manage price auctions, book loads, issue transport orders, confirm availability of material, manage travel documents, certificates,communications between the parties and traceability of the goods, but also manage transport problems, reservations of loading and unloading at the loading docks or on third-party platforms, and all WITHOUT making phone calls or writing emails. All this collected data provides detailed analysison flows allow you to define the best routes, analyze times or quantities of material shipped to evaluate variations in work programs. It is finally possible to have certain data on the impact generated for Scope 3, in fact every transport is managed separately from the others and has, among other things, certain data on the vehicles used and the distances travelled, and therefore on the impact generated. We calculate that a company that moves 500 packages (in different shipments) can save up to 1500 hours of work in one year. The target customer is any company that produces, processes, reworks or markets products that needs to ship material on pallets or in large boxes that cannot be moved manually or without the use of transport equipment handling, or companies that need to manage arrivals and departures from their warehouses, or freight forwarders or couriers who handle large quantities of material. To date, Saas Vammon seems to be the only one that allows the management of shipments and dialogue between company/transporter/supplier at 360 degrees and without constraints, all other platforms are for use exclusive to the customers of individual transporters or forces customers to exchange messages and emails for negotiations.

  • Reefilla — Reefilla EV charging services: recharge your car anywhere, anytime
  • AdapTronics — AdapTronics is a deep-tech startup that produces adaptive mechatronic devices to make logistics sustainable on Earth and in space. Its adaptive mechatronics technology offers an alternative based on a multifunctional electrostatic membrane that allows the gripping and manipulation of objects of any shape. In addition, it offers a thin-filmtechnology with sensor capabilities that becomes adhesive when electrically activated.
  • Neuron Guard — Neuron Guard, recognized as the best European startup in HEALTH category (Startup Europe Awards - SEUA 2017), is developing a life-saving medical device that aims to become the standard of care for Targeted Temperature Management (TTM) therapy. Every 7 seconds around the world a person suffers of Acute Brain Damage because of CardiovascularDiseases (CVD) and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). They are the most costly and prevalent killers in the last 15 years (15 million deaths by CVD in 2015), and the leading cause of disability (the global incidence rate of TBI is 200 per 100k people per year). WHO estimated a global expenditure of $ 330 billion in 2015, but it is going to increase sharply: $ 4 trillion in 2025 - including premature death, disability, and health care costs - just for CVD in LMICs. Temperature is a vital body parameter. It regulates all cellular functions so its management is essential for the good outcome of patients in several medical conditions such as cardiac arrest, stroke, traumatic brain injury, neuro and cardiac surgery, epilepsy, migraine and oncology. Regulating body temperature at a desired level makes all other treatments more effective. The most modern medical approach is the target temperature management, where physicians try to maintain the most favourable temperature for the patient for up to 24-36 hours, preventing excessive warming (fever) or cooling.Our device is a targeted temperature management system composed by a THERAPEUTIC COLLAR POWERED BY A SMART CONTROL UNIT (the size of a small briefcase). The collar transforms the neck into a natural heat exchanger exploiting several physiological and anatomical characteristics of the human body. It is quicker to act on brain tissue but can also function as total body temperature adjusting device if required. A disposable protective shield makes cleaning the collar after each use simple while featuring an optimal safety profile both in term of pathogens and allergens. The control unit collects all the data of the treatment and transmits them to the Emergency Response System. Our mission is to improve the safety of patients on the roadside, at home or in the workplace, and to reduce the costs of chronic care. In fact, Neuron Guard aims to be the only device that can be used in every circumstance, inside and outside the hospital, and allow the user to fully manage the temperature of the patient warming and cooling as necessary. Our vision is to have a Neuron Guard kit in every public place just like the Automatic External Defibrillator (AED) to empower bystanders to immediately react in case of emergency. Under this perspective our device becomes a connected-intelligent platform that takes care of the patient, connects the scene with the Emergency Response System transmitting vital data to improve the readiness and effectiveness of professional intervention.The device is patented in Italy, USA and China. We have made several prototypes in collaboration with Italian and English companies, such as Tecno Elettra Impianti and TWI, tested it in laboratory and published the experimental results on the NeuroCritical Care Journal. We have also conducted a GAP Analysis with another English consulting firm (CDP) and we are testing the human prototype internally. We are seeking to raise 2.5M€ to complete the pre-industrialization, with design and construction of the human device for the pilot trial, finalized the regulatory clearance and launch it into the market in 2019.
