A2 is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of science to transform medicine and turn the tide on cancer. We are focused on the next frontier in cell therapy: solid tumors. A2 engineers T cells that target the loss of genetic material in tumors, enabling the selective killing of tumor cells while leaving normal cells unharmed. The company was founded in 2018 by Alexander Kamb, Michael Gallo, and Paul Kang and has raised $136M since inception. Our investors include The Column Group, Vida Ventures, Samsara Biocapital, Nextech Invest, Casdin Capital, Euclidean Capital, UC Investments (Office of the Chief Investment Officer of the Regents), and Hartford Healthcare Endowment.

Alector is pioneering the development of novel therapeutics for neurodegenerative diseases by leveraging insights from immunology, neuroscience, and human genetics. Their innovative approach, termed immuno-neurology, aims to harness the brain's immune system to combat conditions such as Alzheimer's, frontotemporal dementia, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. With a robust pipeline of therapeutic candidates, Alector is focused on transforming the treatment landscape for these debilitating diseases, aiming to improve the lives of millions affected by neurodegeneration. Their commitment to scientific excellence and a culture of curiosity positions them as a leader in the biotechnology sector, with significant potential for impactful advancements in patient care.

Altpep develops early disease-modifying treatments and detection tools for amyloid diseases by targeting one of the earliest molecular triggers – toxic soluble oligomers. These oligomers are associated with many diseases, including neurodegenerative diseases and Type 2 diabetes. Decades of scientific research by the Daggett Research Group culminated in the discovery of a novel protein structure, alpha-sheet, the foundation of our innovative approach. Our lead program aims to identify Alzheimer’s disease long before symptoms occur and then neutralize the toxic soluble oligomers associated with the disease.

Arbor Biotechnologies is pioneering next-generation gene editing to revolutionize the treatment of genetic diseases. The company focuses on discovering and developing genomic medicines that address the root causes of these diseases, utilizing a diverse toolbox of novel gene editors. With a commitment to curing all patients suffering from genetic conditions, Arbor is positioned at the forefront of the biotech industry, leveraging advanced technologies to rewrite the human genome and provide functional cures.

Arc is a venture-backed startup electrifying the marine industry and is headquartered in Los Angeles, California. Led by a team of former rocket engineers, we’re developing, manufacturing, and delivering high-performance electric boats at lightning speed. Our groundbreaking first model, the Arc One, set a new industry standard as the most powerful electric boat commercially available at launch. And, it was just the beginning. Our second model, the Arc Sport, is delivering electric boating to the mass market. We’re continuing to chart new waters with future models until everything that floats is electric.

Aspen is developing induced-pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to address diseases with high unmet medical need, beginning with autologous neuron replacement for Parkinson’s Disease (PD) and extending across the brain and affected organs.

Autobahn therapeutics is focused on improving life health for people affected by cns disorders by driving the regenerative power of the human body. Altering the progressive and debilitating course of these conditions by returning the brain to a healthier state will transcend the benefits offered by existing therapies and allow people to live the futures they deserve. Cns drug development has long suffered from limited innovation and high failure rates, especially for drugs that strive to modify the underlying cause of disease. Developing successful therapies requires several factors, including a deep knowledge of underlying disease mechanisms, exceptional chemistry, insights into viable translational models and strategies to match the right patients to the most effective drugs. We have brought these elements together at autobahn to make a real difference in the lives of people.
