  • SynCardia Systems, LLC operates as a key player in the cardiac medical device industry, holding the distinction of manufacturing the world's only commercially approved Total Artificial Heart (TAH). Their collective vision was to salvage and advance the artificial heart technology, which traces its lineage back to the Jarvik-7, to address the critical gap between end-stage biventricular heart failure and the limited availability of donor hearts. The company's business revolves around providing a life-saving solution for patients at risk of imminent death from irreversible biventricular failure. Its primary clients are highly specialized transplant hospitals and heart failure programs. The business model involves the sale of its sophisticated medical devices and the necessary support systems to these certified centers. A significant milestone was the initial FDA approval on October 15, 2004, which designated the TAH as a bridge to transplant for eligible patients. This was followed by approvals for a smaller 50cc version to accommodate more women and adolescents, and for the Freedom® portable driver, which allows clinically stable patients to live at home while awaiting a transplant. SynCardia's core product is the temporary Total Artificial Heart (TAH-t), a pneumatically driven device that completely replaces the patient's failing native ventricles and four heart valves. It is available in two sizes, 70cc and 50cc, to fit a broader range of patients. The system functions with an external driver; the hospital-based Companion 2 (C2) driver provides pneumatic power from implant through recovery, while the lighter, portable Freedom® driver grants mobility to discharged patients. This ability for patients to leave the hospital significantly improves their quality of life. With a history of over 2,000 implants across more than 25 countries, the SynCardia TAH is the most widely used and studied device of its kind. After a period of Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2016 and an acquisition by Versa Capital Management, SynCardia was acquired by Picard Medical, Inc. in September 2021, securing resources to pursue further innovation and market expansion.

  • The company focused on creating energy-efficient heating and cooling systems for surfaces like seats and beds.The core of Tempronics' business was the development and application of solid-state thermoelectric devices. This technology is based on the Peltier effect, where passing a current through a junction of different materials transfers heat from one side to the other. The company developed a patented product called the Climate Ribbon™, a flexible and distributed thermoelectric system that could be integrated into various products without altering their structure or feel. This system provided direct conductive heating and cooling to the user, a more energy-efficient method than convective systems like traditional HVACs. Tempronics' technology consumed less than 100 watts, a significant reduction compared to the 1 to 10 kilowatts used by conventional vehicle HVAC systems.The business model centered on partnering with original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to integrate its technology into their products. Key markets included the automotive industry, home and office furniture, medical, and aviation. In a significant milestone, Tempronics entered into a strategic partnership with Lear Corporation in 2016, a major automotive seating supplier, granting Lear exclusive rights to the technology for automotive applications and securing a minority equity interest for Lear. Tempronics also sold an aftermarket product, the PCS-200 Personal Climate System, directly to end-users such as fleet operators and professional drivers, which could be attached to most vehicle seats. The company raised a total of $22.7 million in funding over eight rounds, with investors including Lear Corporation, Nth Power, and Arizona Tech Investors. Despite its developments and partnerships, the company is now listed as deadpooled.
