Northern Biotechnologies has raised $1.5M in round "a" private funding. Northern is seeking commercialization and investment partnerships to continue the development of additional anti-bacterial, anti- viral and anti-fungal applications of our technology which require additional testing, proof of concept and commercialization partners.

Northern Biotechnologies is pioneering the commercialization of an innovative, long lasting, therapeutic anti-microbial technology that has significant applications in the Human Health Care arena. Infectious disease control and prevention

can be revolutionized by integration of our cost saving technology. Issued Patents and proprietary production IP offer a stable platform for growth and partnership into all human related applications of the technology. A unique feature of the technology is its extended protection of 1-3 days through each application. Additionally, the physical method of pathogen destruction prevents formation of resistant strain types, in contrast to existing technologies that rely on metabolic action for kill. Testing shows high performance anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti- viral functioning in various direct, topical, and wound care, nasal/ oral and related dosing mechanisms of the technology. We are in process with the first New Drug Application for antiseptic hand wash, and are looking for partners to pursue additional drug approvals in specific markets.

Existing product branding in the Human market is Prefense hand sanitizer and wipes. In addition to human applications, Northern holds over twenty-five global patents for anti-microbial water filtration using our technology. We also hold EPA registrations for persistent antimicrobial filter media. Significant opportunity exists in the technology used as a multi surface sanitizer for all levels of food production. Other existing product lines and cash flow are in place from additional internally developed technologies including high performance filtration medias, biotech remediation and process technologies used in petroleum, agricultural, and industrial processing. Northern also holds nationally placed consumer and professional brand lines of "green probiotic" cleaning products based on our IP and manufacturing base. Additionally, our cGMP contract packaging division sells our proprietary formulations to many national brands in a variety of markets. Company management is made of a diverse team with the experience and drive required to steer strong growth and relationships with partner companies. 

Headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, NovImmune is a life science enterprise with a proprietary next-generation antibody drug discovery platform and expertise in advancing drug candidates from bench to bedside. The Company is applying its capabilities to realize a vision of generating drugs that provide more robust benefit to patients by attacking the cause rather than symptoms of disease. NovImmune has established a balanced pipeline of first- and best-in-class pre-clinical and clinical drug candidates with a mix of both clinically validated and novel targets.

Numab is a Swiss biotech company focusing on the discovery and development of therapeutic antibodies. Numab is a young company lead by a Management with proven track record in the biotech industry.

Numab applies a high-throughput selection system that increases the antibody discovery success rates by magnitudes and allows to efficiently identify best-in-class and/or first in class antibodies. The discovery engine is particularly well suited to detect antibodies against unconventional targets such as multi-spanning transmembrane proteins (e.g. GPCRs or ion channels).

Numab is pursuing proprietary antibody programs in autoimmune diseases and pain, however, also applies its breakthrough technology to discover highly potent antibodies on behalf of its partners in the pharmaceutical industry.
