  • 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.

  • NEWTWEN — We develop software that generates real-time embedded digital twin solutions for model predictive control and diagnostics of electromechanical systems, enhancing performance, longevity, and reliability. In essence, our toolchain creates a precise digital replica of a physical device, such as an electric motor or generator, in order to accuratelymodel the electrodynamic and thermodynamic behavior of the system across a wide range of operating conditions. We then apply our proprietary mathematical approach to exponentially reduce the computational complexity of this model—so much so, in fact, that our digital twin can be integrated into the device itself to compute in real-time, “on-chip,” as part of an amazingly fast and accurate firmware solution. By accurately predicting temperatures and other critical system parameters thousands of times per second, our Digital Twin On-Chip solutions not only provide unprecedented insight for real-time control techniques to enhance system performance, but also pave the way for data-as-a-service capabilities such as predictive maintenance, monitoring of component aging, and anomaly detection.
