Yeda's Newsletter - June 2023
In recent years, most early R&D for innovative biotech products has taken place in startups and small companies, while mature products are often commercialized by big pharma companies. Inspired by this trend, technology transfer companies have focused their efforts on spinning out companies to develop their technologies. The current economic uncertainty shines a spotlight on the challenges of bringing new technologies to market, and particularly academic spinouts requiring early-stage funding.

This company is changing the way we think about computers!
LightSolver, a spinoff company of Yeda - Technology Transfer Company of Weizmann Institute of Science, has been gaining well-deserved recognition as it works toward revolutionizing computing.
CEO & Co-Founder, Ruti Ben Shlomi, was recently featured in the acclaimed "Faces in Photonics" series by Laser Focus World.
In the feature, Ruti discusses the groundbreaking laser-based processing unit pioneered at LightSolver, developed in the lab of Nir Davidson at the Weizmann Institute of Science.

We are pleased to share the latest investment in Quantum Source Labs Ltd!!

Move over cannabis, there's a new plant in town!
Prof. Asaph Aharoni, from the Weizmann Institute of Science has collaborated with Xinteza API to uncover the potential of a South African plant called the wooly umbrella. Despite being unrelated to the cannabis plant, it produces over 40 of the same active compounds- cannabinoids.

Pesticides play a crucial role in preventing crop failure and ultimately
Pesticides play a crucial role in preventing crop failure and ultimately, preventing mass starvation, yet the traditional form of pesticides can have harmful effects on the environment as well as human health.
We are excited to share that Metabolic Insights Ltd. has joined forces with Weizmann Institute of Science's Asaph Aharoni to develop innovative, environmentally safe solutions that can protect crops without putting people or the planet at risk.
