Enzymit's vision is to transform global manufacturing by eliminating dependence on scarce resources through local, sustainable, affordable bio-production. Enzymit is developing cell-free bio-production, the next generation of bio production technology eliminating the inefficiencies, complexity and cost of current bio-production technologies. Enzymit’s small, modular bio-reactors can efficiently convert available and abundant feedstocks into valuable products, from pharmaceuticals and cosmetics to food and materials. We are offering global resource independence while reducing the environmental impact. Enzymit uses artificial intelligence to design new-to-nature enzymes, the molecular machines in living cells that perform life-enabling functions. Our novel enzymes create molecular assembly lines that transform any feedstock into desired products. This approach reimagines bio-production by moving away from traditional, complex, and costly whole-cell methods to using nature’s elemental building blocks, making bio-production competitive with traditional chemical manufacturing in cost, efficiency, and sustainability, while also offering greater flexibility in product customization.

Cybord develops technologies that stop counterfeit, defective and malicious electronic components from getting assembled into products during the manufacturing process. Cybord scans each component prior to placement by integrating with electronic product manufacturing equipment, and deep learning algorithms rate each component based on Cybord’s global component database. Between 5 to 10% of all electronic components are considered counterfeit, responsible for up to 35% of RMAs. With Cybord, OEMs, EMSs, and distributors ensure their products are of high quality and free of hardware-cyber threats

Magentiq Eye Ltd. was established in 2014 with the aim to harness the most cutting edge computer vision and deep learning techniques to aid doctors in endoscopic procedures. Doctors today spend hours during Endoscopic Procedures looking at the LCD screens in order to explore, examine and treat various conditions. At Magentiq Eye we put the growing power of Deep Learning, Image and Video Processing to the help of doctors, so they can be more accurate and effective- ultimately saving millions of lives and billions of dollars. Our first product is APDS: Automatic Polyp Detection System, developed to be used in online and offline colonoscopies. Our APDS (Automatic Polyp Detection System) can point out the suspicious locations of polyps in the videos, increasing the attentiveness of doctors during procedures, thus helping them to reduce their polyp miss-rates. Given the large population that annually undergoes colonoscopy, even a modest decrease in polyp miss-rate can save a lot of lives! The APDS- RT runs on the video feed from the endoscopic camera used by the physician in real time during the endoscopic procedure (currently only on Colonoscopy Procedure). The APDS-OFL is a software that runs in off-line mode on pre-Recorded Colonoscopy Videos. It is estimated that 40 million colonoscopy procedures are performed every year (almost 40% in the US alone). The ability of colonoscopy procedures to decrease the number of colon cancer cases has been proven without a doubt and their number expected to grow. However, researches have shown that there is about 25% of misses (undetected polyps) in those procedures, misses which can, unfortunately, cause interval cancer. Within this context The APDS can be sold as an add-on to the colonoscopy system or as a service (license per exam), paid by the clinic or hospital. Once the APDS system would be formally proven, during the next year, to improve polyp detection rate, it could be sold either jointly with the endoscopic equipment providers or it can be integrated in the colonoscopy devices.
