AvantiCell Science (ACS) has a mission to provide
innovative tools for the evaluation of new drugs,
therapies or foods. ACS will achieve its mission
through commercial sale of advanced cell models
based on ethically-sourced human cells, produced
by combinations of additive manufacturing and cry-
opreservation, and contract services based upon
those models. Testing performed using ACS 3D hu-
man cell models will be more predictive of health
benefit than conventional methods typically used by
the pharmaceutical, healthcare or natural therapeu-
tics industries. Moreover, ACS technology delivers
this analytical advantage to customers in a conven-
ient, “plug and play” product format.
Our product:
Our main products are 3D human cell models produced
by additive printing and presented to customers in cryo-
preserved (frozen) format. The technology platform will
be applied progressively across AvantiCell’s library of hu-
man cells. However, the product specifically promoted at
the trade fair will be a “plug and play” cell toxicity test
using human stem cells. Its unique selling point is that it
delivers unprecedented ease of use without compromis-
ing analytical quality.
Ease of use arises from removal of need for cell manipu-
lation and short lead time to data acquisition. Analytical
quality derives from use of physiologically-relevant cells
in culture formats which promote tissue-like function and
confer predictive value i.e. results predict a test com-
pound’s likely effect in clinical or healthcare use.
A service based upon these printed models will also be
promoted to organisations which prefer to out-source
their analytical testing. The technology platform under-
pinning both cell-based products and service will be de-
scribed in technical literature, accompanied by an explan-
atory audio-visual animation of the analytical process.
Our target audience:
We are looking forward to meeting potential customers
and distributors in the ASEAN Region.
Customers will be offered a reliable, predictive tool with
which to test the efficacy (biological activity) and biosafe-
ty of new Halal products they wish to take to the market.
This information is a direct and fundamental requirement
of Halal compliance for all suppliers of healthcare prod-
ucts. For these reasons, ACS considers its technology
particularly attractive to research leaders, especially those
responsible for new product validation, activities for
which the ANAPRINT products are ideally suited.
Interest in identifying distributors lies principally in
finding specialist distributors of life science products in
SE Asian countries beyond Malaysia, where ACS already
has an established distributor in the form of a wholly-
owned subsidiary. This particularly includes those ASEAN
countries where natural product therapeutic develop-
ment is high on the agenda of the local biotechnology
industry.
Why us:
Our SME Instrument project ANAPRINT will develop new
products for bioactivity and biosafety testing. These
products are additively-manufactured cell models, and
their use in “cell-based analysis” will be relevant to
potential customers across a range of industry sectors,
from pharmaceutical drug discovery through natural
product therapeutic evaluation to functional food testing.
AvantiCell products uniquely provide the means to obtain
exceptionally reliable information in a highly-ethical man-
ner, using technology that is not reliant on use of animals
or animal materials. These products, which are a direct
outcome of EU public funded manufacturing innovation,
are also delivered in formats which non-specialists can
use with ease and confidence, allowing this testing to be
integrated into any product-development strategy.
Alternatively, should the customer prefer, AvantiCell can
perform the testing and deliver product health-benefit
and safety information in a responsive, cost-effective
service. With these tools, Halal food and medicine
producers can add value to their product offerings,
supporting them with robust scientific information which
wins customer confidence as well as compliance
expected of Halal-accredited products.

New Gluten World (NGW is a company set up by
the University of Foggia, Molino Casillo SpA, a world
leader researcher in the transformation of grain, and
the lead researcher Carmen Lamacchia. It aims to
globally promote a gluten-friendly technology that
will displace current gluten free approaches to the
celiac disease in preparation of cereal-based
foodstuff.
The methodology is patent protected in 105 countries
worldwide. NGW’s mission is to break down the nutritio-
nal divide, that discriminates celiac patients (who are in-
tolerant and sensitive to gluten against healthy indivi-
duals. Enabling milling companies and producers
worldwide to detoxify gluten through the proprietary
methodology will progressively overcome the traditional
gluten free products and make all individuals part of the
gluten friendly revolution.
Our product:
New Gluten World will introduce on the International
market the revolutionary Gluten Friendly™ methodology,
a new and innovative detoxification method of gluten
proteins from grains of cereals that are used in the pro-
duction of bread, pasta and baked goods, mainly for ce-
liac and gluten sensitive patients. The traditional ap-
proach to celiac disease – that is, a “gluten free” diet with
gluten removed with expensive enzymes – will be repla-
ced by a new, disruptive and cost-effective approach,
where a natural and safe physic-chemical process modi-
fies the toxic component of gluten, while leaving its me-
chanical, nutritional, and sensorial properties untouched.
The methodology stems from the advanced biotech re-
search conducted at the University of Foggia and addres-
ses a grand social and economic challenge for the world,
where celiac patients are on average 1% of the world po-
pulation, while 30% has gluten-sensitivity, with figures
increasing every year. The market opportunity is huge,
fenced by a patent extended in 105 countries. Such op-
portunity will be seized by NGW moving quickly to TRL
#9 with huge tests on a pilot plant that confirms both the
technical effectiveness of the method and its industrial
feasibility. At the same time, clinical studies are being
conducted to exclude side effects and confirm the bene-
ficial properties of the gluten-detoxified products.
Our target audience:
Direct users of the Gluten Friendly™ technology will be
the milling companies that produce flour at industrial
level. That level of the market is extremely competitive
and is more sensitive to innovation (as opposed to down-
stream vertically integrated markets), to the extent inno-
vation is instrumental to clear strategies of differentiation
(Gluten Friendly™ flour) or of cost reduction (detoxifying
method that is cost effective, efficient and easy to imple-
ment). The Gluten Friendly™ industrial process is margi-
nally inexpensive for mill running companies, compared
to traditional pasta, and way more convenient that gluten
free products, because the adaptation of milling plants is
easy to implement, other things being equal. Moreover,
the consumption of power and water is reduced. Business
partners to involve are investors and buyers from USA,
Canada, China, Japan, Singapore, India, South America,
New Zealand and Australia. The market for detoxified
flour has incredible worldwide dimension and the goal
for the Gluten Friendly™ flour is to become the standard
even for gluten sensitive patients or healthy individuals,
thus replacing traditional floor in daily diets.
Why us:
Aside from the recognition received from the European
Union’s Horizon 2020 programme, NGW has won the
following awards:first place at NutriAwards of Lille
(France) as the best innovative process (2015), winner of
the category Agrifood Cleantech, Start Cup Puglia (ITALY
2015), winner of the PNI (Italian Innovation Prize) and
the Life Science category (2015) and in 2016, NGW was

Home of Cool™ is an electronic cooler device that
uses peltier elements and insulation materials,
therefore fully omitting the compressor and
refrigerant fluid. The on only moving part is and ef-
ficient and low cost coil fan, similar to computer fan,
which blows the hot air away from the unit. The fan
has a lifetime that is at least five times
longer than that of the compressor (depends on
quality of fan).
Our product:
The greatest benefit of our cooler is that it is service free.
Moreover, our refrigerator elements take less than 8% of
the total volume of the cooler (compressor is 30%). Hen-
ce, another benefit is that our coolers take 60% less spa-
ce and are up to 70% lighter than the compressor coolers
available in the market. Other important benefit of our
coolers is that it is vibration free and it is also free from
any chemical regulation since we have removed the fluid
refrigerant. Furthermore, our coolers do not contain any
flammable gases, hence the need for certifications is by
far lower than conventional coolers. All these benefits
lead to huge cost savings in manufacturing and mainte-
nance. Bottom line: our solution gives our customers
great benefits for a lower price!
Our USP are: -Space saving, -Ecological, -Maintenance
free, -Smart.
This opens new possibilities to promote a brand and to
strengthen the green environment responsibility even
with less investment.
Our target audience:
Our mission is to offer a different approach to display the
products to the customer minimizing space usage with
new, environmentally friendly concepts of cooling,
combining this with excellent design and cutting-edge
technology. Our target market is the professional and
high-volume Point of Sale cooler market, that requires a
cooling temperature down to +6C, Mainly for the
promotion of chilled food or beverages.
Our cooler has also a great potential for chocolate
vendors for example in Asia due the hot indoor ambient
temperature that deforms the chocolate and so lowers its
perception and appeal to customer.
Product development will be done in-house but manu-
facturing is done with selected third parties and sub-
contractors in all production phases.

PROBISAN, Pentabiol’s new product began its
application in animal feed, since being able to take
better advantage of nutrients makes the animal
stronger, healthier, potentially more productive
which leads to an improvement of R.O.I. Economic
development of livestock farms.
This quality allows you not only to improve animal
health directly, but also to improve human health by
intake healthier meat products.
For the ambition to know these possible indirect
effects and even their direct application on human
health, today we are an example of mainstreaming
and we are investigating both in the animal and
human sector.
Our product:
PROBISAN—IT'S A NEW LINE OF INNOVATIVE WORK
against the usual structures of live bacteria (probiotics). It
is the product of a DOUBLE OPTIMISATION fermentation
process, generated from a culture of lactic bacteria and
yeasts, designed to act together, and it does create
effects similar to probiotics and prebiotics character.
Bacteria and yeast for the fermentation process itself, ARE
knockouts and act in MAINLY METABOLIC ways, after
ingestion of the product by the animal. This main feature
contributes to STABLE and EFFECTIVE BEHAVIOR. The
usual ways involving structures of "live" probiotic
organisms can provide instability problems as to its
outcome, either by handling either by the treated animal
microbiota.
Probisan’s performance is DIGESTIVO FULL CYCLE. For its
characterization, enzyme structure, vitamin B complex
and amino acids, begin the process of improving animal
digestibility from mouth to sphincter. So the animal
regenerates NATURAL flora of the digestive system,
improving the utilization of nutrients, and stimulation
IMMUNE DEFENSES OF YOUR ANIMAL, enables them to
be healthier and therefore potentially more productive,
and improving conversion rates (IC).
Probisan’s action is preventive and looking in any case to
improve the health of the animal, not looking for an
application similar to that of a drug to solve problems of
pathological character, as it seeks to prevent HEALTH
PROBLEMS. Probiotics are usually applied as palliative
methods seeking to solve specific digestive disorders, so
the result is partial, potentially leading to new digestive
"disorders".
Probisan’s performance profile allows it to act as a
substitute aiming for PROGRESSIVE SUBSTITUTION OF
ANTIBIOTICS, according to the increasingly demanding
food safety standards.
Our target audience:
We are mainly looking for either large livestock
customers to supply directly our product, or companies
interested in distributing it, in different areas of Asia.
Large livestocks producers of poultry and beef meat;
specialized distributors and / or nutrition consultants in
animal feed, interested in replacing antibiotics to improve

microencapsulation technology is a solution which solves
these issues. When you microencapsulate e.g. oil it
becomes a powder that is easily preserved in room
temperatures and can be added into any product. The
taste of ACTIWHEY® microcapsules is very mild, so any
flavor can be added (eg. vanilla or lime). ACTIWHEY®
microcapsules can prolong the shelf-life of e.g. oil
ingredients up to 5 years.
The novelty of the ACTIWHEY® microencapsulation
comes from:
1) Improves the efficiency of the original substance by
preserving the quality and bioactivity of the ingredi-
ent.
2) Best microcapsule durability and reliability that
guarantee remarkably prolonged shelf life and
stability of the core ingredients (e.g. microencapsu-
lated flaxseed oil intact after 7 years of storage).
3) Superior nutrition profile of the coating material.
4) The most safe and healthy microencapsulation
material that is rich of SH-groups that provide
antioxidative features.
5) Market-leading microencapsulation efficiency,
enabling up to 70% fill ratio.
The technology is based on covalent bonds because of
the high concentration of SH groups in it’s structure.
Covalent bonds are stronger than the bonds formed by
other microencapsulation materials (e.g. gums, carbohy-
drates, lipids and gelatin).
Our target audience:
Health food and drink manufacturers, food supplement
manufacturers, functional food manufacturers and
nutraceutical companies who will benefit from
implementing microencapsulation technology to their
processes.
Besides targeted segments, the solution will have a lot of
applications in the fields of food technology, pharmacy,
and agriculture. The ACTIWHEY films can be applied (1)
as coatings for food products to protect them against
mechanical stresses, drying, oxidizing or harmful external
substances, (2) as coatings for tablets, granules and
related pharmaceutical solid dosage forms (3) as capsule
shells for nutraceutical or related purposes.
Industrial investors are interesting partners for us when
they can use the opportunity to license our technology in
order to add value for their end product.
Why us:
Aside from the recognition received from the European
Union’s Horizon 2020 programme, ACTIWHEY® Whey
Protein was awarded as the “Superfood of the year 2016”
by the Finnish Natural Food association.
