The opportunity to view Ikarovec’s presentation and book a partnering meeting with the Executive Chairman, Dr Robert Haigh, is available here . Dr Haigh’s presentation discusses the potential of the company’s approach in devastating eye diseases, and its progress since inception. Ikarovec launched earlier this year with £2.5m of seed funding from UKI2S with co-investment from LifeArc and Parkwalk. Primary use of funds is to take the company’s lead programme, a multicistronic gene therapy for diabetic macular edema, to IND-enabling studies. It was recently awarded a £458,740 Innovate UK grant for one of its earlier stage programmes in wet age-related macular degeneration. Ikarovec has recently taken laboratory and office space in the Innovation Centre at Norwich Research Park, with access to shared scientific facilities. The location also brings proximity to Norwich Medical School and a clinical trials unit which will be valuable as the company develops. –ENDS— Robert Haigh, Executive Chairman
