MED-TECH STARTUP PITCH The Med-Tech World Summit is all about the future of the digital health sector, which is why we’re committed to helping this innovative industry grow by offering support to startups and entrepreneurs. For the past two years more than 200 startups have benefited from this platform. Over 100 companies based in this dynamic and emerging sector will be selected to showcase their products and initiatives throughout the event. Each startup selected will have a 1x1m booth at the Med-Tech World Summit. The selected 100 will also have the opportunity to be surrounded by top investors and mentors, being invited to lavish networking dinners as well as benefiting from online exposure. The Startup Pitch is only open to startup companies, meaning recently launched startups that aren’t supported by a public company. An independent panel of judges will select ten of the best companies and entrepreneurs to make it through to the Pitch during the final leg of the Summit. Taking part guarantees valuable insights and critical feedback from the judges although the prize package will give just one lucky startup a massive head start when it comes to expanding their business plans. Find out if you could be the next startup unicorn!

“ In-depth knowledge, cutting-edge technology, and a team that is consistently up to date with the latest in scientific research: Those are the genes in our DNA ”

请与我们分享更多关于Bio Arte公司的情况，是什么让该公司脱颖而出？ 我在一年半前与我的合伙人Christian Duchow一起创办了这家公司。Bio Arte融 合了两个不同的世界，创造了全面性的视野；我熟悉的领域关注于微生物和补 充剂的生产，而Christian则专注于制药方面的工作。 公司背后的想法非常简单，以人类提供者的特征归纳与临床判读为基础。这是生 活在我们体内和与我们一起生活的所有微生物之集合，并在人们的健康平衡中 发挥着关键作用。微生物群是一个新的元器官，影响着我们健康的许多因素， 涵盖了从消化到维生素的生产和免疫力的调节。

是什么促使你在2020年与合伙人Christian Duchow一起创立了Bio Arte？ 我纯粹于偶然之下在马耳他认识了Christian，马耳他是个建立联系的好地方。 我们与Malta Enterprise接洽，他们帮助我们找到了一个工业空间来建立实验 室。通过Malta Enterprise的帮助，我们还参与了一些国际研究项目。对我们来 说，研究是必须的，对一间公司来说这显然是非常昂贵的工具，但我们坚信， 若不对研究部门投资，公司就没有未来。 Bio Arte公司提供什么样的服务和产品，对医生和病人有什么益处？ 我们提供你居住在身体不同部位的微生物的全面特征，特别是肠道的微生物。 显然，只做这些还不够，所以我们也将这项服务连结到我们的数据库以及对照 组——基于不同的族群人口，我们可以估计出微生物的平衡样态。一旦平衡被 破坏，更倾向炎症或虚弱环境，就会对你的健康产生严重后果。好消息是，微 生物叢可以被调节——这当然须借由基因分析——但一旦我们取得分析结果， 就可以提供治疗建议。这就是我们与几位医生紧密合作的原因。每个病人结果 都是非常特有的，所以为了看到成效，个性化治疗是关键。永远不会有对每个 人都成功的治疗方法。

wears his heart on his sleeve, so to speak, having worn health trackers for the past two years.

There’s also a growing demand for consumers to have more control over their data.

The average person today probably owns several different health tracking devices, he explains. Oura rings, Apple Watches, Fitbits.

“When we first started looking into wearables we realised that while they may have their own way of doing things, essentially, they do the same thing. So, the question is, how can we take all this data and aggregate it into meaningful, useful information?”

The solution? Alea has decided to build their own wearable with its own aggregator dashboard - blending all these devices into one super tracker. They’re also partnering with a company called Valencell, which is providing the sensors for the device.

“ Wearables will increasingly cost less and less - you will be able to see the wellbeing of the population in real time.

It’s a tech that should make health much more accessible ”

Health wearables have always been a bit trendy though haven’t they?

“Having access to software that analyses your data, which can then be processed by machine learning tools which can give you a recommended course of action to take - you’re going to be able to identify problems way before they become an issue. What if you could read your cholesterol levels, or neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine? Previously people would go to the doctor only after symptoms start to show - often a culmination of years of unchecked damage.”

Alex also believes wearables can help make good health more accessible to people facing economic and social disadvantages.

“Imagine having it in countries that are poor, wearables don’t cost a lot of money and they will increasingly cost less and less - you will be able to see the wellbeing of the population in real time. It’s a tech that should make health much more accessible.”

“ I believe the road we’re going down is that more and more people are going to want access to their data - to exert more control over their health ” His passion for the subject is evident, shipping out over a 100 Oura rings to partners and staff, primarily because he strongly believes that it’s an ‘incredible technology’. In fact, the wellbeing of staff is at the forefront of this conversation - in a commendable move, the company is taking proactive steps to ensure the health of their employees is in peak condition.

The company will not have access to personal data he reassures me, leaving staff to privately manage the results themselves. It’s a sensitive point, because, as he says, it’s not just data, it’s biodata - which has a messy history with unethical mismanagement. However, they do have access to anonymous data, which helps them to measure the impact company initiatives are having on the wellbeing of employees.

They may enjoy doughnuts every day, he jokes, but ultimately the priority is to ‘make sure nothing you do at the office is going to harm them whether it’s physical or mental.’

NASDAQ) and CEO of solo sciences, a platform that detects cannabis counterfeit, and is now building two very unique companies. These two companies, according to Alex, will solve major global issues in two different industries but they both focus on two sectors – AI and cannabis.

The reason that The London Fund and Alex are targeting the cannabis industry is due to it being a close knit community and those players who occupy high levels in the industry are able to come close to and understand those who are just merely consumers.

So what are the two projects in the pipeline that are set to change the global economy and solve modern day problems? The answer is Coupond and engin sciences incoporated.

COUPOND The London Fund always identifies problems within a sector and use innovative ways to present a solution to overcome the barrier. One of the major problems felt worldwide is that of couponing, a lucrative business both in everyday industries and also in the cannabis sector. Coupons are the life and soul of brand promotion and there are a number of eye catching statistics that support this: •

90%+ of consumers use coupons one way or another

•

60% love receiving digital coupons

•

31Billion coupons were redeemed back in 2019

•

68% believe digital coupons generate loyalty

However, the problem identified by Alex is that if you wish to make a deal the consumer must have a universal coupon that does not exist, I.e the consumer is told where to redeem it. Coupond will solve this problem by bringing back the marketing power to the manufacturers as consumers will be able to access offers anywhere. The team behind Coupond are responsible for more than $1B in cannabis sales at Eaze and built the foundation of modern category management, loyalty cards and digital coupons.

EMERGING TECH STARTUP PITCH The AIBC Summit is all about the future of the emerging tech sector, and our Emerging Tech Startup Pitch is the answer to keeping up with this innovative industry. For the past two years more than 200 startups have benefitted from this platform. Over 100 companies based in AI, Blockchain, Quantum Tech, FinTech, Big Data, and IoT will be selected to showcase their products and initiatives throughout the event. Each startup selected will have a 1x1m booth at the AIBC Summit.

The selected 100 will also have the opportunity to be surrounded by top investors and mentors, being invited to lavish networking dinners as well as benefitting from online exposure. However, the Emerging Tech Startup Pitch is only open to startup companies, meaning recently launched startups that aren’t supported by a public company. The competition keeps getting fiercer as only the best 10, as decided by an independent panel of judges, will make it through to the Pitch during the final leg of the Summit. Taking part guarantees valuable insights and critical feedback from the judges although the prize package will give just one lucky startup a massive head start when it comes to expanding their business plans.

FUNFAIR HAS STEPPED UP IGAMING FROM DULL SLOTS TO COMPLEX MULTIPLAYER EXPERIENCES. WHAT IF IT GETS A LITTLE TOO FUN? HOW DOES GAMBLING GAMIFICATION PAIR UP WITH PLAYER PROTECTION? I would never say that slots are dull! If you like playing slots, there are some fantastic games and mechanics out there to enjoy playing. We decided that we didn’t want to compete in the slots arena. There’s already a huge amount of excellent content in a very mature and saturated market. We saw a new style of multiplayer to single outcome games, like crash, kicking off in the crypto space and decided to bring this and other formats to the regulated gaming world.

The games we produce are community-driven, highly engaging, yet very simple to understand.

We do that on purpose to attract a new type of player into the regulated gaming space. So, if we can capture some of that anonymous, illegal, and unprotected player base into regulated operators, that’s a good thing for player protection.

Also, when it comes to the games themselves, our betting rounds are longer than slots, so we are not enabling players to bet more. One of the reasons our games do play longer is that we add gamification to create more of a community feel, focusing on collaboration and or competition.

This is not aimed at driving higher losses or quicker play, just a more community-based experience, which many gamblers are looking for.

BUT IT’S NOT JUST FUN AND

RADICALLY ACCESSIBLE MACHINE LEARNING

彻底的可及性——机器学习

NEUROTHINK’S CEO BRIAN ROGERS, AND COO CHARLES DONLY DISCUSS THEIR RADICALLY ACCESSIBLE VISION TO PUSH THE BOUNDARIES OF SCIENCE BY MAKING POWERFUL AND SECURE MACHINE LEARNING TOOLS ACCESSIBLE.

Q&A 问答

HY DOES NEUROTHINK STAND OUT FROM THE CROWD?

Brian: In addition to being radically accessible we have a unique and efficient way of virtualizing and then fractionalizing access to GPU compute power, which a couple of years ago didn’t even exist. For many years, companies have been fractionalizing CPUs. Now we have the ability, through partnerships and a complicated software stack, to be able to fractionalize the GPU’s, which is a game changer in this space.

Charles: The access to GPU servers that neurothink offers comes from building out the leading-edge technology with our partnerships. Our real differentiator has been our ability to bring together the right team to figure out how to unlock this type of technology.

Staying in one environment and being able to seamlessly transition your work from an unlimited development environment to a powerful by the minute training environment requires a lot of development and orchestration on the back-end.

This has not been done before in this space.

I coordinate modules on policy-related aspects, emerging creative industries and art, and undertake research on regulatory sandboxes and novel models for stakeholder and public engagement. Design and art with a hands-on approach, along with collaboration and prototyping foster an environment that facilitates ease of absorption - therefore we adopt a design methods approach (UX, service design, participatory design, design fiction) to implement ethical and regulatory guidelines into technical infrastructure, and to support decision-making through prototyping. A blockchain future needs to become more inclusive not only with the promises of decentralization but also better integration with existing institutions and culture.

Of course, being a technology, blockchain fundamentals are a must. You cannot regulate something you do not understand, and neither can you establish a business or economic framework without having knowledge of both the internal and external implications of the technology. For non-technical students we introduce various aspects of the technology and an overview of how it works, as well as delve into smart contract coding, whilst for the computer science/ICT students we delve deep e.g. by building a blockchain from scratch, and undertaking verification techniques on smart contracts amongst other aspects.
