Novai is a UK biotechnology company, developing and commercialising transformational technology in ophthalmology. The company's initial focus is on ophthalmic disorders such as glaucoma and AMD (Age-related Macular Degeneration). Novai argues that current clinical endpoints lack early disease biomarkers to objectively detect and measure cell health and response to treatment in the retina. Novai asserts that its proprietary biological marker, DARC (Detection of Apoptosis in Retinal Cells), combined with its bespoke and patented Artificial Intelligence (AI) aided algorithm, allows, for the first time in vivo, identification of cellular-level disease activity in the retina. Novai stresses that DARC can also predict disease progression, allowing for enrichment of clinical trial cohorts. The company anticipates an exit via licensing of its biomarker business to a Contract Research Organisation (CRO), an Initial Public Offering (IPO) following a successful phase 3 trial of the diagnostic platform, or trade sale to a strategic pharmaceutical company.

Using artificial intelligence and robotics to increase farming efficiency whilst reducing the environmental impact. Small Robot Company is utilising Farming as a Service (FaaS) and has created three robots to perform a farmer's usual tasks. These lightweight machines do not damage and compact soil, as heavy tractors do which leads to decreased plant growth and increased time spent ploughing to revive the topsoil.
Their three robots, named Tom, Dick and Harry, each have unique responsibilities. Tom collects information on the farm, Dick looks after crops and Harry plants individual seeds. The company's AI, dubbed Wilma, provides a digital scope of the farm and dictates which plants require the most attention Small Robot Company has already received a £5,000 deposit from 20 farms and manufactured concepts of their machines.

Zentraxa is focused on precision bioengineering to produce peptides with predictable properties tailored towards purpose. The company points out that peptides are amino acids that are the building blocks of certain proteins needed by the skin, like collagen and elastin. It has come out with a synthetic biology platform, Zentide, that designs, produces and tests novel peptides. Zentraxa argues that Zentide can circumvent previously existing bio-design limits imposed by conventional peptide synthesis and produce tailor-made biomaterials for healthcare, personal care and industrial uses. Zentraxa is initially targeting healthcare with its first biomaterial, a debondable adhesive, for use in wound care. The company asserts that the material has other uses such as cosmetics and industrial applications due to its ability to bond strongly while still being easily and painlessly removable. Zentraxa will use the investment to create a portfolio of other biomaterials for licensing to global businesses in the health and industrial sectors via its Zentide platform.
