CardioPrecision Ltd, established in 2007 and based in Glasgow, United Kingdom, specializes in the development of innovative medical devices for invasive cardiovascular surgery. The company has created a patented technology that allows medical professionals to conduct minimally invasive procedures with minimal neck access. Its flagship device is a retractor that illuminates different zones of the operative field, facilitating the various steps of cardiothoracic operations through a short incision in the skin crease of the neck. This advancement enables endoscopic vessel harvesting operators to control the monitor's position and perform procedures from a comfortable, upright posture, ultimately enhancing precision during less invasive aortic valve replacement surgeries.

Ocutec Ltd. is a company based in Bellshill, United Kingdom, that specializes in designing, developing, and marketing polyethylene glycol-based contact lens materials for vision correction and eye care. Founded in 2001, Ocutec leverages the materials science expertise of Professor Neil Graham and his team at the University of Strathclyde to create innovative solutions. The company focuses on developing both thermoset and thermoplastic contact lens materials that utilize polyethylene glycol (PEG) polymer chemistry. This technology facilitates step-growth polymerization, resulting in hydrated lens surfaces that mimic the extracellular matrix. As a result, Ocutec's lenses enhance tear film stability, promote ocular health, and provide improved comfort for users, allowing them the freedom to see without spectacles.
