Market opportunities• Pharmaceutical companies are shifting their R&D and

sourcing focus to biopharma.

• Increasing understanding of the interaction between drugs and the genetic makeup of patients.

Combined with low-cost genetic profiling:

• Improvement of treatments;• Acceleration of the outcomes of clinical trials;• Cost of drug development reduced.

Brand positioning (1)Positioning

• Acceleration of algorithms in biopharmaceutical industry by exploiting FPGA programmability.

Promise

• A speed-up in the execution time. • An optimization of performance over power consumption

ratio. • Our support would be crucial to enhance the productivity of

such firms.

Personas• Their algorithms, no matter the specific field of application. As

our algorithm is provided just as an example.

Personality• We are two students from NECST Lab at Politecnico di Milano

with a drive for computer science. • We believe that our team, thanks to a multi-field approach, can

give a valuable contribution to bioinformatics research.

Product• We offer hardware acceleration services in order to help

companies maximizing their performance over power consumption ratio.
