Technologies you’ll hear from

• aiKNIT – Sophie Richter – Imperial College London
  • A cutting-edge material technology that enhances human capability, performance and wellbeing. We design tailor-made wearables which adapt to the human body to support healing processes and body functions, developing human-centred products that last.

• ConformiTi – Hana Fox – Imperial College London
  • Using novel additive manufactured technology, we are developing spinal implants for improved fit to the patient.  Optimising load distribution and enhancing bone growth for superior surgical outcomes.

• Developing point-of-care tuberculosis diagnostics – Christopher Shield – Royal Veterinary College
  • A tuberculosis test that delivers what others cannot. We are removing barriers to test access by making a diagnostic that is rapid, cost-effective and equipment-free. Empowering the least advantaged to manage their communities’ health sustainably.

• Dotplot – Shefali Bohra – Imperial College London
  • Dotplot aims to be the first at-home breast health monitoring tool to guide and assist women to conduct breast self-checks and eliminate late detection of breast cancer.

• Echo Band – Kourosh Sam Kamali – Imperial College London
  • The All-in-One, Wearable Medical Device, for Stroke Rehabilitation. A smart band, that records signals in paralysed muscles. Allowing patients to move their arms and legs, via electrical stimulation.

• Go Assistive Technology – Dr Clément Favier – Imperial College London
  • We believe that a life without barriers is possible. Go Assistive Technology designs and manufactures high-quality prosthetic products specifically for resource-constrained and environmentally challenging settings. Let’s build successful life stories, together. Go.

• The HIVQuant Project – Dr Catherine Kibirige – Imperial College London
  • We are commercializing an ambient temperature HIV-1 RNA/DNA quantification kit for research and clinical purposes. It works on portable solar, or battery driven cyclers and provides a point–of-care HIV-1 treatment monitoring for resource-constrained settings.

• Imaging Driven Multifunctional Bioplotter – Dr Sudeep Joshi – The Francis Crick Institute
  • This project is focused on creating a next generation bioengineering platform that combines 3d bioprinting, imaging, and microfabrication to create complex cellular models of biological systems.

• Liquibio – Dr Elijah Mojares – Queen Mary University of London
  • Liquibio is building a biomanufacturing platform to enable continuous manufacturing of mammalian cells at scale – starting with cultivated meat. We create edible scaffolding from food production side streams that is 100x cheaper than conventional microcarriers.

• MakeSense Technology – Robert Quinn – Imperial College London
  • The world’s most effective non-visual wayfinding technology.

• NEX.Q – Ashleigh Myall – Imperial College London
  • NEX.Q combats healthcare-associated infections by developing DeepTech support systems for infection prevention and control. Through integrating computational learning models into user-friendly software, we are providing innovations to clinical teams to prevent and control disease transmission.

• OncoAssign – Dr Ashwin Nandakumar – Institute of Cancer Research
  • At OncoAssign we are developing complementary diagnostics to enable oncologists to identify the most suitable treatment for a cancer patient, preventing relapse and eliminating unnecessary toxic therapies.

• Smrtflo – Dr Pasha Normahani – Imperial College London
  • A digital platform that transforms commonly used hardware into a powerful tool for the detection of poor circulation – redefining these diagnostics with high performance signal processing and proprietary machine learning technology.
