MindWave Innovations (NYSE American: APUS) is positioning MindChain as an enterprise-focused Ethereum-compatible Layer 2 designed to give organizations greater control over blockchain infrastructure while retaining Ethereum settlement and security.

VERAXA Biotech (NASDAQ: VRXA) was featured in a recent article highlighting how its collaboration with AI-focused research organization Ardigen could strengthen the company’s oncology pipeline as artificial intelligence plays an increasingly important role in drug discovery. By combining Ardigen’s expertise in AI, computational biology and bioinformatics with VERAXA’s proprietary BiTAC(R) platform, the companies aim to use AI to identify optimal dual-target combinations for T-cell engagers and antibody-drug conjugates while improving target validation and reducing development risks. VERAXA’s “AND-gated” approach, which activates therapies only when two cancer-associated targets are present on the same cell, may be particularly well suited to AI-driven analysis of complex genomic, proteomic and clinical datasets. The technology could also enable researchers to revisit historical clinical and preclinical data and potentially identify safer applications for targets or therapies previously abandoned because of toxicity concerns.

Every energy technology that eventually becomes “bankable” has to survive an awkward middle stage first, the point where the tech has been proven in a lab or pilot but hasn’t yet run at commercial scale long enough for lenders to trust it. These first-of-a-kind (“FOAK”) projects are demonstration- and deployment-stage projects being brought to final investment decision for the first time, without the operating history conventional lenders rely on. These projects can’t be financed like conventional infrastructure. There’s no historical performance data, technology risk is higher and it’s harder for lenders to feel comfortable. The fix isn’t a single loan or investor, but a layered capital stack, with each layer priced for a different piece of the risk. Helping sponsors assemble and negotiate that stack is where firms such as Market Street Capital come in, working across debt, equity and structuring as sponsors pursue a financing that lenders will support.
