16. TRACTION & MILESTONES:
in October 2016, our multi-
omics platform was awarded
the grand prize of $20,000 in a
startup competition organized
by the Pistoia Alliance, a
professional organization that
brings together big Pharma
and tech companies
Starting in March 2017, our team
is collaborating on a DARPA-
funded projects with researchers
from University of San Francisco,
Boston University, CDC, IBM and
others. This a multi-million dollar
project seeks to develop a new
therapeutic for infectious
diseases.
For the past several months, our team has
participated in a number of business
accelerator programs, including the
Propeller Health Accelerator and the
CAPITALx program run by the Idea
Village. These programs and the team at
the New Orleans BioInnovation Center are
helping prepare our company for growth.
