Decentralized low-cost emissions-free ammonia via electro catalytic reaction of water and air.

NitroFix, a spinoff company of Yeda, brings in a stable and scalable catalyst to an electrochemical process that can take place at room temperature, no heat and pressure needed.

Nitrofix allows on-site generation of ammonia for fertilizers and emerging use cases in fossil-free maritime fuels. Emissions-free ammonia is essential to decarbonize this legacy industry that burns 3% of the world’s natural gas.

The first edition of our newsletter is dedicated to some of our key highlights in 2021. The past year was a record year for licensing agreements. In addition, many potential deals were added to our pipeline, and we look forward to seeing many of them materialize in 2022.

With no preventative therapy currently available for pre-leukemic individuals, that number is alarming. However, a group led by Professor Liran Shlush at the Weizmann Institute of Science has found that treatment with ROCK inhibitors can inhibit the growth of pre-leukemic mutated cells. This in turn, prevents disease onset.

This breakthrough could ultimately change the course of AML.

IndieBio San Francisco - Batch 13 Demo Day is taking place tomorrow (January 19).

Join some of the top curated startups in climate tech, biotech and deep tech, including Yeda spinoff company NitroFix.

NitroFix was established based on research done at the laboratory of Professor Ronny Neumann from the Faculty of Chemistry at the Weizmann Institute of Science. It is the world's first proprietary electrolyzer that produces green ammonia directly from nitrogen and water, without the need for hydrogen.

Looking back over the past 12 months, we can confidently say that 2022 was a successful year for Yeda. In the course of the past year, we have completed a series of important licensing deals for technologies that have emerged from all campus faculties, many of which have led to the formation of new entities.

Something exciting is happening in the world of Quantum Computing!

Last week, the Israel Innovation Authority announced the formation of the largest consortium in its history, with a three-year budget of NIS 115 million. Weizmann Institute of Science, professor Roee Ozeri is amongst the leading academic entities supporting the development.

AstraZeneca, Accenture, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and Clalit Health Services - the largest healthcare organization in Israel - have selected six startups to participate in BeyondBio SCALE. Among them is Yeda spinoff company, “Curesponse” - a unique, innovative and focused test combining tissue reactions to various drugs with rapid genomic sequencing for optimal cancer treatment adjustment.
