Gero develops an AI-driven drug discovery platform that applies physics-based modelling and generative AI to identify mechanisms and targets underlying ageing and multiple chronic conditions. The platform leverages longitudinal data from approximately 10 million medical records to inform target discovery. Gero is advancing programs aimed at slowing ageing and is supporting those programs through preclinical development. The company has pharmaceutical partnerships including a collaboration with Roche’s Chugai that featured an upfront payment and up to $250 million in milestones, and an alliance with Pfizer. Financially, Gero has now raised $17 million in its most recent round, bringing total equity funding to $34 million. The company is based in Singapore.
- Rainbow Weather
Participated · Equity · Nov 2023
Founded in 2021 by Alexander Matveenko, Rainbow Weather is a Warsaw-based climate-tech startup that delivers ultra-accurate precipitation, hurricane, and wildfire forecasts. Its mobile application refreshes every 10 minutes and offers minute-level forecasts over four-hour windows, leveraging radar, satellite imagery, weather stations, and smartphone barometers to minimise error. The company claims one-square-kilometre spatial resolution and has surpassed 1 million app installs. In addition to its consumer app, Rainbow Weather has launched APIs serving logistics, agriculture, aviation, navigation, drone operations, and outdoor activity platforms. The team also maintains weatherindex.ai, an open-source tool comparing short-term forecasts from major providers against real-time airport reports. With fresh capital, Rainbow Weather plans to extend its forecast horizon from 4 to 24 hours, add additional weather parameters, and deepen its push into B2B markets. The firm positions itself as a faster, more precise alternative to large incumbents such as The Weather Company, AccuWeather, and Apple Weather.
