up plans to seek and destroy industrial bacteria
Highlights from Scott Kirsner Innovation Economy blog.
A small Boston University and MIT spinout company, Novophage, wrapped up its first round of funding late last month, raising $5.75 million from a trio of local investors and Chevron Technology Ventures, an arm of the energy conglomerate.
The startup is engineering customized viruses called phages, whose job is to seek and destroy the bacteria that gum up all kinds of industrial processes, from papermaking to oil exploration to heating and cooling big buildings.
Anywhere there water and humidity, explains Micah Rosenbloom, Novophage chief executive, you get colonies of bacteria that produce what are called biofilms. now, people use all kinds of chemicals and biocides to eliminate the bacteria, but that isn very environmentally friendly, Rosenbloom said. we did was to go in and analyze the microbial community, we sequenced its genome, and then we developed a targeted phage that can seek and destroy. It is a predator of bacteria. clog up the system, he said, it costs you more money to run it, and in the case of papermaking, you sometimes need to stop the production line to deal with the biofilms. The Kraft family, notably, owns a portfolio of paper and cardboard businesses.
Flybridge funded the last startup with which Rosenbloom was involved, Brontes Technologies, and a Brontes cofounder, Eric Paley, helped start Founder Collective. Early in its life, Brontes was a finalist in MIT $100K Entrepreneurship Competition. It was acquired by 3M in 2006 for $95 million; the company made new technology that enables dentists to produce betterfitting implants for patients.
Novophage also participated in MIT entrepreneurship competition, as well as contests at Harvard Business School, University of California at Berkeley, the University of Texas, Boston University, Purdue University, and even the University of Nebraska.
jokingly say that their original business model was winning business plan competitions, said Rosenbloom, who was an adviser to the company before taking on the chief executive role this year. brought in $100,000 or so in prize money, and they were running the company on that. was a really competitive deal, said Jon Karlen of Flybridge. He adds that the company had initially been thinking about designing phages that would fight infections in people, or produce biofuel. this is a totally different approach, he said. pivoted a while back, mainly because it is very capitalintensive to try to make therapeutics or fuel. Koeris and Chevalier previously worked at Flagship Ventures; Lu was named one of Technology Review magazine Innovators Under 35 last year. The company field is often called biology, which entails designing new biological entities to perform specific tasks. Rosenbloom says the company will initially focus on battling biofilms in HVAC systems and paper production.
think this is one of those classic challenges of a technology that applicable to many markets, where you need to pick what to focus on, said Eric Paley at Founder Collective. is an alternative to using toxic chemicals. When you talk to people in industry who have to manage these problems, this is a Holy Grail kind of solution. With this funding round, it becomes one of the bestfunded alumni of that program, just about matching RelayRides,[url=http://www.holisteroutlet.cc]http://www.holisteroutlet.cc[/url], a carsharing startup that has raised $5.77 million to date.
Groupon for the greens? The 21stcentury mania for serving up deep discounts to consumers willing to subscribe to email lists marches on, with the launch last week of Divoty. The Pembrokebased startup collects special offers of interest to New England golfers, promising deals for 50 to 90 percent off. Divoty is offering a round at the Glen Ellen Country Club in Millis for a foursome, including carts, for $200 (a 33 percent discount, according to the company).
Soon, they sell 18 holes with a cart for one golfer at the Gardner Municipal Golf Course for $40 (20 percent off the typical $50 weekend rate, or 11 percent off the weekday price, by my calculation), and a few onehour lessons with Boston College head golf coach Trevor Drum for $80 (a 43 percent discount, Divoty said.)
mission is to secure any deals that can get people playing more, or playing better, said cofounder Brian Krause. the summer months, we hoping to see a lot of greens fee deals, but also some deals for golf product and golf retailers, too, if they make sense. And there is a lot of interest from the golf pro community to do deals on lessons, either standalone, or as a package to play their course. They have bootstrapped the company, and plan to present a new deal to Divoty subscribers every three days at the start.
Divoty isn the only deal site designed for duffers, of course. But competitors like 14 Stix and CaddiesBag are focused more on golf apparel, equipment, and accessories as opposed to regionally relevant lessons and greens fees.
