C-Major is a medical technology company. It asserts that over 2 million people suffer a Needle Stick Injury (NSI) every year and are at risk of contracting blood-borne viruses such as Hepatitis and HIV. It aspires to resolve this crisis by bringing to market its patented medical device, Controlled Helical Retraction Device, to prevent NSIs. The company argues that the device contains a ‘Helical Track’ mechanism for controlled acceleration of the needle during retraction as well as a ‘Sealed Port’ to minimise any blood splatter. C-Major endeavours to disrupt the $5.5 billion safety syringe market with its product. It is backed by the UK 'Innovation Seed' fund. C-Major will use the investment to complete the final design of its product for manufacture and assembly ahead of a Series A funding round in 2021.

Belluscura aims at attending millions of people worldwide who are suffering from chronic lung diseases by providing them with the X-PLOR, portable, a lightweight, oxygen delivery device. It has developed it mainly to improve both the mobility and the life quality of the patients suffering from Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease globally. It also has an exclusive license to a patented portable oxygen concentrator, the X-PLOR, that supplies 96% pure oxygen to patients 24/7. It's X-PLOR weights only 1.4kg and is 33% lighter, and provides 37% more oxygen per kg than its leading opponents. As smoke, pollution, and lives increase, the oxygen market will continue to grow from £1.1bn to £1.9bn by 2024. So, according to its market research, a 3% market share within 3 years could generate £46m in sales. With the funds raised, it is planning to extend its proprietary oxygen platform technology into other multi £bn markets such as wound care and sleep. Furthermore, it has filed patents on a next-generation portable artificial lung.

Carnot is developing hydrogen engines with key components manufactured from ceramics able to withstand fuel combustion temperatures, eliminating the need for cooling systems and doubling the efficiencies of modern engines. The company argues that modern engines waste on average one-third of fuel energy to cool systems that stop metallic components from melting. Carnot claims that its engines eliminate this waste doubling efficiency, halve fuel costs and CO2 and achieve net-zero operation by operating on biofuels and hydrogen benefiting the long haul transport, marine and primary off-grid power markets. Carnot has raised over £600,000 including a pre-seed round in 2020 for £357,000 at a pre-money valuation of £2 million, a £300,000 Innovate UK grant and another £300,000 Eureka Eurostar’s grant. Carnot has a 5-year, 3-phase exit strategy and will begin licensing its IP at the end of 2023 at which point it will begin generating revenue. It will eventually look for acquisition from one of its manufacturing partners in 2025 after demonstrating industry acceptance of its technology.
