Truthtek is a spin-out company from Manchester Metropolitan University with a suite of software for the analysis of non-verbal behaviour in video streams of structured interviews. The technology combines latest psychological research in non-verbal communication with leading image recognition and analysis software. Potential applications include lie detection, where the technology is non-invasive and has shown 85% accuracy in initial trials. MTF has provided initial seed capital to the company to enable it to develop its commercial and market-entry strategy.

DermIng, an independent private research Institute, carries out a series of clinical trials to measure the activity and tolerance of skin care treatments and products, and also developers the very latest non-invasive diagnostic bio-engineering systems.

Kjaya is a company that received a SBIR Phase I grant for a project entitled: Semi-Autonomous Adaptive Neural and Genetic Segmentation of Medical Images. Their Phase I project will implement a physician-assisted, real-time adaptive system for the segmentation of anatomical structures in 3D medical image data. Medical image segmentation seeks to change the representation of an anatomical structure, making it more easily analyzed. Because of the extreme variability of these structures in biological systems, current idiosyncratic manual methods currently in use are tedious, time consuming, and error prone. Image segmentation cannot in general be programmatically solved. The proposed system is a Neural Network (NN) based adaptation of the individual data using parallel Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) and coupled with a Genetic Algorithm (GA) based adaptation across GPU cores. The system will build a diagnostically useful segmentation of the anatomical feature within seconds from an area of interest outlined by a physician using a Computed Tomography (CT) or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan. Fast growth in medical imaging overwhelms available diagnosticians. An intuitive and inexpensive system to quickly and accurately deliver diagnostic relevant segmentation of medical images offers tremendous commercial value. Currently, each scan requires approximately 50 minutes of manual preparation. The diagnosis and treatment of an estimated 20 percent of diseases benefit from medical imaging. Newer scanning technologies have increased in resolution, but such techniques have not made segmenting easier or faster. The proposed method will enable more diagnostics to be done with the quality controlled directly by physicians.

River Diagnostics is dedicated to the development of products for the healthcare and medical research marketplace based on the vast potential of non-invasive/non-destructive Raman spectroscopy. Today researchers in personal care, and dermatological research are using River Diagnostics' instruments to understand the metabolic processes in the skin, and other fundamental research questions.

Endologix is a company focused on the development and manufacturing of minimally invasive treatments for aortic disorders, operating within the medical devices industry. The company's main offerings include a variety of endovascular stent grafts, which are used for the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), a condition characterized by a weakening of the wall of the aorta that can lead to a balloon-like enlargement. Endologix primarily serves the healthcare sector, particularly in areas related to vascular disease and aortic disorders. It was founded in 1992 and is based in Irvine, California.
