  Azuro

  Fintech

  Azuro operates as a decentralized, on-chain predictions layer, providing infrastructure and liquidity for developers to build prediction and gaming applications on EVM-compatible blockchains like Polygon and Gnosis Chain. Founded in 2021 by a team including Paruyr Shahbazyan, Rossen Yordanov, and Dmitry Globenko, the protocol was established to address transparency and liquidity challenges prevalent in traditional betting markets. Shahbazyan, with a background as a professional sports bettor and the founder of Bookmaker Ratings, an online media platform for the betting industry, was motivated by his experiences with the opaqueness of centralized bookmakers. Yordanov transitioned from a corporate role in online payments, where he led crypto development, to co-found Azuro, driven by a desire to work more deeply within the on-chain environment. The company's business model is structured as a B2B protocol, offering modular tooling and oracle solutions that enable third parties to create and monetize user-facing applications without initial or ongoing costs. Revenue is generated from transaction fees within the ecosystem, boasting an average take rate of 4.28%. As of June 2024, the protocol had facilitated over $358 million in prediction volume across more than 4.8 million transactions, generating $3.4 million in total revenue. Azuro has secured $11 million in total funding from investors such as Fenbushi Capital, Hypersphere Ventures, Delphi Digital, and Gnosis. Azuro's core technology revolves around a peer-to-pool liquidity model called the Liquidity Tree, which aggregates capital from liquidity providers (LPs) to ensure there is always a counterparty for bets, thus solving a critical liquidity problem in peer-to-peer prediction markets. LPs provide single-sided liquidity, typically in stablecoins, and in return, earn a yield based on the protocol's overall performance. All transactions are executed via smart contracts for transparency. Bets are represented as non-fungible tokens (NFTs), which allows for features like parlays and cashouts, and opens up possibilities for secondary markets and gamification. For developers, Azuro provides a Software Development Kit (SDK) with pre-built web components to facilitate the creation of decentralized applications (dApps) on its protocol. Governance is handled by the AzuroDAO, which involves the community in key decisions.

  Binette Technologies provides a 'Growth AI Operating System' designed to give small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) the operational capabilities of larger enterprises without the associated overhead.

  BioXgen

  Health

  BioXgen is a medical device company developing solutions for post-operative complications in cardiac surgery. The company was incorporated in Delaware on June 13, 2025. The company's flagship product is a patent-pending extracellular matrix (ECM)-based cardiac patch designed to support recovery after open-heart procedures. This patch, derived from porcine tissue, is intended to mitigate post-operative atrial fibrillation (POAF), a common complication affecting a significant percentage of cardiac surgery patients. POAF can lead to longer hospital stays, increased risk of stroke, and other adverse outcomes. The device provides structural support to the heart during the critical recovery period and is applied directly to the heart before closing the chest. BioXgen operates on a standard medical device revenue model, planning to sell the cardiac patch directly to hospitals and cardiac surgery centers. The pricing will be structured on a per-procedure basis, aiming to provide a clear return on investment for hospitals by reducing costs associated with managing complications like POAF. The market for managing POAF is substantial, with approximately 500,000 open-heart surgeries performed in the U.S. annually. The company is pursuing an accelerated regulatory pathway, leveraging an FDA 510(k) predicate device to expedite market entry, with a target for FDA clearance in 2026. Preclinical validation in large animal models and a clinical proof-of-concept study have been completed. Funds from its current offerings are intended to support clinical trials, product development, and operations to achieve FDA clearance and initial commercialization.
