Carocell Bio is innovating by developing patented anti-inflammatory peptides delivered via nanoparticles to address severe inflammatory conditions such as atopic dermatitis. Their primary peptide, JEL0305, not only halts inflammation but also prevents its initiation, as evidenced by its effectiveness in reducing inflammation in human AD biopsies and burn tissue. With AD impacting a substantial population and costing $21 billion yearly for unsafe treatments, Carocell Bio's safer peptide remedy has the potential to avert AD recurrence. Additionally, their pioneering approach to skin-related inflammation involves topical peptide products that target mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), a crucial element in inflammation. This breakthrough offers promise for managing and forestalling AD and mitigating skin aging.

PULMOBIOMED is addressing the failings of current lung tests, which are expensive, infrequent, and invasive. Their so-called "clinically proven" solution claims to offer non-invasive liquid samples from deep within the lung, promising affordable tests for lung diseases. They assert that their product can empower clinicians to diagnose and treat conditions like lung cancer and infections, even though there's limited evidence to support these claims. With a few customers in the USA and Australia, and vague partnerships in the EU, PULMOBIOMED hopes to disrupt the asthma diagnostics market by introducing what they call a comprehensive diagnostic test for asthma, despite the skepticism around their capabilities.

An award-winning independent brewery that has been profitable every year since 2014 with worldwide distribution. Siren Craft Brew creates beers to ease those new to drinking, whilst producing adventurous flavours to continuously recapture and entice customers to return to their products.
The business has won numerous awards for their beers. In their first year of launching, Ratebeer.com rated Siren Craft Brew as the 2nd Best New Brewery in the World and is repeatedly listed in their Top 100 Brewers every year. They have also been awarded the World Beer Cup medal and CAMRA’s Supreme Champion Beer of Britain for their flagship stout.
Siren Craft Brew consists of a team of 28 people, whilst achieving £2.82m in annual turnover. In 2018 so far, their revenue has grown by 28% and their brewery has produced more than 2m pints this year.
The company is now raising funds to package their products into cans, as they have already identified a canning manufacturer that will meet the business's needs to also create high-quality bottles for their beer. Any overfunding will result in the company being able to take their taproom experience to other areas, as well as increase beer production and produce drinks in a more efficient manner.
