Success Story Founders: Sebastien Payen & Thibaut Scholasch       Success Story What support did you received from YEi? Advice on Intellectual Property Two trips to visit cities in France. 1st trip: Lyon, Marseille, Montpellier and Grenoble. Second trip: Marseille and Montpellier Partners we met: incubators (petal in Grenoble, Marseille, cap omega in Montpellier,...), research centers (INRA, Pole Minalogic, INRIA) and universities (Supagro, CPE in Lyon,...) Mentorship to write the OSEO Creation and Development application Free invitation to the French American Conference of Entrepreneurs (FACE) Why France? Best research centers for viticulture and wine are based in France: Montpellier and Bordeaux Potential huge customer base in the long term in Europe Research grants: in 2007, Fruition was awarded 39,000 euros by OSEO Emergence and in 2008, it was awarded 250,000 euros by OSEO Creation and Development Interesting tax rebates: Jeune Entreprise Innovante (JEI) and Credit Impot Recherche (CIR) Labor highly qualified and less expensive. Also, employees tend to be less mobile than in California  

Cell Viable Corporation JILL FABRICANT This project involves testing our lead compound, LF2, by validating efficacy and safety for use as an anti-aging agent in the cosmetic industry. The technology is useful not only in the cosmetic industry but also in the medical industry. Cell Viable has one patent (pending) in the United states which will be extended worldwide, with more expected to be filed in the future. The technology involves small molecules, inhibitors and breakers of Advanced Glycation Endproducts (AGE’s). Because of the huge markets and high costs for development, the company has decided to pursue development of a cosmetic product initially which will be an anti-aging cream, to be launched first in France, and later, in other parts of the world. The company is looking for partners in France to develop and to market the technology.

FOX HOLT Orthogonal is a specialty chemicals company selling a chemical called a photoresist to the electronics industry. Organic electronics industry is expected to grow into a $19.7B industry in 2012 (NanoMarkets) for several reasons including size, weight, and lower energy consumption. Orthogonal’s technology enables the electronics industry to use their existing manufacturing infrastructure to produce organic electronics. Orthogonal is currently selling these patent-pending chemicals to customers. The patent-pending technology is based research from Cornell University.

Microwave Tomographic Imaging for Breast Cancer Diagnosis TOMASZ GRZEGORCZYK Delpsi is developing a tomographic biomedical imaging modality based on ultra low-power electromagnetic radiation for the detection of breast cancer. The new technology is safe, low cost, fast, and presents good sensitivity and sensibility. Currently in partnership with Dartmouth College and the Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center, Delpsi integrates hardware and software developments into a clinically viable prototype. Upcoming work will focus on clinical trials and comparison against existing modalities such as mammography, magnetic resonance, and ellastography.

BACK IN FOCUS ERIC PITE Millions of people have to wear glasses occasionally. Presbyopia, for instance, virtually affects mid-forty people who want to read anything at close range. Also, usage and penetration of digital displays (ebooks, cells, GPS...) is increasing. Our solution consists in processing texts and images displayed on personal electronic devices and in providing the user with an image that matches his eyesight.rapidly. No need for glasses or contact lenses, we accommodate the content to your very eyes.

Todd Horton KangoGift launched in late 2009 with the simple idea of letting people send small, thoughtful gifts, to their friends’ cell phones. Each customized gift voucher is displayed on any mobile device and the gift recipient visits the store, shows the phone, and redeems the gift. Since our launch, our company has received many accolades for our innovation and ability to work with small business owners and big brands alike. The company is in the process of looking to bring mobile gifting to Europe where the idea of sending a friend a latte, movie ticket, or other small item from a local merchant may be better received than a denominated gift voucher such as a 10 euro gift certificate. We are looking for marketing partners who can help us bring the technology to Europe.

SIDI GOmEs ParallelCities is a mobile app that allows you to find the people at events you attend that you would be interested in and that you should meet. With it, you can easily search for whatever keywords (e.g. name, interests, expertise) describe the people you are interested in meeting at a live event, and the app finds them for you and provides a platform to communicate with them privately, or with the entire group of people present at the event through group chatting. With our social augmented reality technology networking at events is about to move into the 21st century!

Novatarg has pioneered a membrane-based nanotechnology platform that is uniquely positioned to solve the structures of membrane proteins in their native biological state, and to further depict dynamic conformational changes, relevant to their mechanism of action. Such structural insight will overcome the current challenges for designing novel intramembrane allosteric-modulators not readily possible by solution-based techniques. Novatarg intends to deploy these membrane-based advances into a modern drug development paradigm that will significantly reduce the time and cost of drug development in comparison to traditional serendipity-based discovery and clinical approaches.

CAMILLE DELEBECQUE XAVIER DUPORTET Fungal diseases of crops cause very large economic losses through post-harvest spoilage of the commodity, and with the increased regulation and banning of synthetic pesticides, economical methods to produce natural based pesticides and crop protectants are desperately needed. Our first product, MycoKeel, is a natural antifungal molecule, with astonishing and unmatched properties. Non-toxic and completely biodegradable, MycoKeel is more effective than any other known candidates in the control of major food spoilage fungi. MycoKeel has also antioxidant properties and can be produced from waste materials.

ALAIN GOUBAU Altaeros is developing a groundbreaking buoyant shroud to passively lift a lightweight turbine a few hundred meters in the air. By adapting aerospace technology to harness the strong winds at higher altitudes, Altaeros can access over 5x the number of feasible wind sites than existing turbines. Airborne Wind Turbines (AWT) can thus be deployed closer to demand centers at both onshore and offshore sites. The company is currently in prototyping phases and will demonstrate a fully functional proof-of-concept system in summer 2011

SWAROOP & KAVITA SAMANT SHUKLA Fenugreen is bringing to market a patented technology that holds the potential to revolutionize the food economy by lowering the cost of produce. Fenugreen is a simple, all-natural, and inexpensive food packaging that is remarkably effective at keeping food fresher for longer in a large-scale and sustainable way. Fenugreen seeks to address the enormous, yet often overlooked, global challenge of food spoilage (25% of the world’s food supply is lost to spoilage at a cost of $450B annually).
