Pulse Infoframe Inc strives to improve workflow using computer-assisted capture of patient data for specialists – our cloud based software enables better local and global sharing of the data for those who need it to make decisions – our end-user driven tools analyze the data to advance knowledge and thus patient care. Data can be directly entered into our system, and because we sit on top of any EMR system we access additional data that is not otherwise easily accessible. Once accessed, the data is de-identified, aggregated and mined producing meaningful information for our end-users. 

-----------------------

We have applied our solution in various clinical verticals including speciality clinics (Melanoma, Oncology, Neonatology, etc), Imaging and PACS systems (with INFINITT PACS, ClearCanvas, etc) and clinical trials (tracking prostate cancer, Pharmacovigilance, economics, etc). Modules are versatile and can be templated to be used in a variety of systems for achieving the best workflow possible.

AbCellera has developed a next generation technology for the analysis and screening of naturally derived immune repertoires. This platform uses high-throughput single cell analysis to enable the discovery of naturally derived monoclonal antibodies with unmatched speed, efficiency, and assay flexibility. By eliminating the need to culture cells this approach may be applied to antibody discovery from non-traditional host species, including rabbits and llamas, and achieves industry-leading capabilities in isolating antibodies from patient samples, with applications in infectious disease and autoimmunity.

AbCellera is engaged in antibody discovery projects with early partners, including biotech and pharma companies, and is also initiating internal programs aimed at using immune profiling for target identification and lead molecule discovery.

We are looking for Series A financing from strategic investors, as well as new partnerships with antibody drug development companies.

CDRD Ventures Inc. (CVI) is the commercialization vehicle of the Centre for Drug Research and Development (CDRD), Canada's national drug development and commercialization center that was founded in 2007 and is based in Vancouver, Canada. CVI seeks to advance promising drug development projects from CDRD using internal funds and through partnerships with international pharmaceutical companies, venture capital firms, biotech companies, and other funding agencies. CVI also seeks to in-license technologies from industry or non-CDRD affiliated research institutions. The firm considers both small molecule and biologic innovative technologies in virtually any therapeutic area.

Immunimed Inc is a clinical-stage Biopharmaceutical company developing innovative egg-derived, oral potclonal antibody therapy to treat gastro-enteric infections/diseases. Our lead product IMM-001 targets super bug, Clostridium difficile, leading cause of hospital-acquired infections.

Currently is Phase II ready with remarkable clinical response in Proof on Concept multi-center clinical studies.  Phase II clinical study is planned for Q2 2015.

Naegis, based in Vancouver, British Columbia, is developing novel, small-molecule leukotirene synthesis inhibitors (LTSIs) for serious inflammatory conditions.  The Company is currently focused on two proprietary programs: 

o topical and oral therapy for Uveitis, a condition that is responsible for 10% of legal blindness in the US and for which there are limited therapeutic options. 

o oral therapy for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD),  a serious lung disease with increasing rates of mortality.

Naegis has developed a large library of LTSIs that are potent inhibitors of either 5-LO or LTA4H.  The Company is currently identifying a lead compound for selection for futher development for ocular disease, in particular Uveitis.

The Company is also advancing a series of compounds that are novel structures and highly selective and potent inhibitors of LTA4H, which are expected to be developed as new therpaies for COPD

Naegis is seeking pharmaceutical partners and capital investment to advance more rapidly their novel programs.

GaitTronics has developed a robotic patient handling system called SoloWalk. SoloWalk provides effortless mobility for frail patients which would otherwise require two or more caregivers to assist them and put the patients at risk of falling. With SoloWalk's intelligent patient driven mobile system, a single caregiver can mobilize a patient. Additionally, an automatic fall protection system supports the patient automatically if a balance loss is detected, significantly reducing the risk of injury for patients and staff.

Currently, hospitals are only providing adequate mobility for 30% of their patients. With SoloWallk, these institutions can expect to significantly increase this proportion and reduce complications associated with immobility, including: functional decline, bed sores, increased delirium and increased length-of-stay. With the potential of reducing length-of-stay by two days, there is a significant ROI for using SoloWalk in an acute care setting.

Sitka Biopharma is a preclinical stage company focused on developing a breakthrough nanoparticle platform technology designed to increase absorption of drugs in difficult-to-penetrate tissues. Initially targeting oncology indications, we are developing our lead candidate to address the absorption challenge of intravesical chemotherapy for bladder cancer, and later intraperitoneal delivery for ovarian cancer.

We have demonstrated preclinical proof-of-concept for our lead candidate using in vivo and ex vivo models for bladder cancer.
Our goal is to complete our IND in 2015 and begin a Phase 1/2a Proof-of-Concept clinical trial in nonmuscle-invasive bladder cancer in 2016.

Partnership Opportunities for Platform Technology:

Our nanoparticle platform technology offers unique benefits over other nano-delivery systems and has the potential to be combined with a variety of different drugs to improve absorption for therapeutic uses in both humans and animals.

Benefits of Sitka's HPG nanoparticle platform include:

• unimolecular structure
• small size (8-10 nm)
• tailored for a high degree of localized drug bioavailability in large surface applications
• potential utility with a wide variety of drugs and indications

We welcome opportunities to collaborate with biopharmaceutical companies that wish to take advantage of our platform technology.

Fusion Genomics Corp (FG) is a molecular diagnostic test  development company that is introducing diagnostic kits with companion analysis software that offer superior clinical information, faster turn-around-times and ease of use for hospitals and clinical laboratories. Fusion is the first of two companies in the world to bring a validated Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) diagnostic test complete with highly secure cloud based analytical service for childhood cancers (ChildSeq-RNA SRCT) into the clinic. This test was validated in the renowned medical testing facility at the Texas Children Hospital, Baylor College of Medicine.

FG is completing development of kits for facilitating absolute diagnosis of pediatric and adult blood cancers. In addition, FG has partnered with the Royal Tropical Institute (Dutch: Koninklijk Instituut voor de Tropen; KIT) a World Health Organization reference diagnostic laboratory for infectious diseases to design the next generation of assays for the detection of infectious diseases including drug-resistant forms of tuberculosis, influenza, hepatitis and hemorrhagic fevers including Ebola.

Precision NanoSystems Inc. (“PNI”) has developed proprietary technology (NanoAssemblr) and companion Reagent Kits (SUB9KITS) that enable the simple manufacture of novel nanoparticles that are used to delivery genetic and small molecule medicines (nanomedicines). Nanomedicines are the "FedEx" of the health-care industry and are used for cell-specific delivery of research tools, diagnostic imaging agents and drugs to study, diagnose and treat disease. PNI's products are commercialized and in high demand from many of leading RNA and small molecule therapeutic biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies.  http://www.precisionnanosystems.com/products/
