Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry of the CAS (IMC)
The Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry of the CAS, v. v. i. (IMC) is the largest research institution in the field of polymer and polymer materials research in the Czech Republic. In this field, IMC belongs to the most important academic research centers in the world. IMC has a knowledge potential of more than 120 scientists in the key fields of macromolecular chemistry, physical chemistry and polymer physics, as well as in related fields such as biochemistry or biomedical or materials engineering. Although the institute is primarily focused on basic research, it also works closely with the industry, as evidenced by a number of applied basic research results.
Institute of Molecular Genetics of the CAS (IMG)
The principal mission of IMG is experimental biology research. The research is focused on the molecular bases of serious diseases (e.g., cancer, leukemia, AIDS), biology of normal and transformed cells, immune mechanisms involved in the defense of the organism, DNA repair mechanisms, and cellular senescence. The strength of the Institute is the state-of-the-art equipment, which is either operated within the core facilities, service research groups, or in the large national research infrastructures. Services and sophisticated instruments are not utilized by the scientists from IMG only, but can also be used by researchers from other institutions. IMG thus significantly supports the scientific community in the Czech Republic and abroad.
i&i Biotech Fund
i&i Bio is a Luxembourg-based venture capital company that invests in innovative European Life Sciences companies focused on drug discoveries, medical devices, diagnostics, and digital health. The Fund was created thanks to the cooperation of the biotech incubator i&i Prague and the European Investment Fund (see below). With over €47M under management, i&i Bio plans to invest in about 20 early-stage companies. i&i Bio is led by an experienced team of professionals with backgrounds in private equity, healthcare and venture capital supporting entrepreneurs on their journey to global success. Thanks to close cooperation with the fund’s main sponsor, the biotech academic incubator i&i Prague, i&i Bio is supporting and advancing transformative Central European technology companies.
