24. What
will
OneStart
mean
to
us?
24
We plan to develop, test at scale and then license our technology
£100k – matched with TSB SMART, will allow us to….
• Design and build an industrial scale prototype
• Test prototype at UCL using industrial facilities
• Base a demo/development rig at the Stevenage BioScience Catalyst
• Cover costs for first feasibility study with end user
OneStart advice and support will help us to execute our plan
• Network memberships will provide end user and licensee access
• Lab space can be used for prototype refinement and demonstrations
• Legal advice vital for licence model
OneStart would take Puridify to an investment inflection point
• Product proved in-house at relevant industrial scale
• Data will add value for future licensee negotiations

30. How
the
100
K
will
help
you
advance
your
idea
We
already
have
in-‐house
and
external
lab
based
evidence
demonstra0ng
that
our
technology
works
for
biomolecules
delivery
into
eukaryo0c
and
prokaryo0c
cells.
We
envision
that
with
further
op0misa0on
in
the
formula0ons,
our
technology
has
an
immense
poten0al
to
overcome
the
important
problem
of
biomolecule
delivery
in
the
stem
cell
sector,
which
will
enable
improved
research
and
transla0on
into
the
clinic.
• OneStart
funding
will
help
us
to
op0mise
condi0ons
for
improved
delivery
of
DNA,
RNA
and
protein
into
hard
to
transfect
primary
and
stem
cells.
This
would
help
to
improve
stem
cell
reprogramming
efficiency
and
advance
stem
cell
research
and
therapy.
• The
outcome
will
be
superior,
non-‐toxic
delivery
technology
specifically
formulated
for
primary
and
stem
cell
applica0ons.
This
will
strategically
posi0on
Tecrea-‐stem
within
the
stem
cell
sector
and
allow
us
to
capture
a
substan0al
por0on
of
a
rapidly
growing,
high
margin
market.
• Revenue
generated
from
product
sale
would
help
us
to
fund
other
applica0ons
of
our
technology,
including
in-‐house
therapeu0c
stem
cell
reprogramming
R&D.
• Success
with
Tecrea-‐stem
will
enable
us
to
raise
further
funding
for
other
applica0ons
of
this
technology
in
clinics
(eg
for
an0microbial
delivery).
