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.
Market issueCompanies are slowed down by the high computational needing of the algorithms:
• high times of execution;• high power consumption.
aims at solving this problem!
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.
Brand positioning (2)
ProFAX added value• Biopharmaceutical algorithms are complex• Close biologists collaboration & computer science experts
[1]• Modeling and statistics
The composition of our team allows for this type of successful collaboration.

Heterogeneity of competences
Go to market strategy1. We aim at creating a prototype to illustrate our project
features to prospect customers.
2. We will look for future customers and make them aware of ProFAX potentialities, which have been recognized by well known international conferences.
