第11屆國家新創獎於9日舉行頒獎典禮,由吳敦義副總統、生策會創辦人王金平院長親自頒發本年度企業、學研、臨床新創共32個獲獎團隊。生策會陳維昭會長表示,以往早期研發創新、高風險的技術,一般創投都不願意出資,造成技術只能停留在實驗室。因此,生策會與鑽石生技2012年簽訂合作,從新創獎平台選題,針對早期創新的學界技術,協助籌資新創企業,能夠讓這些early-stage研發成果有機會開花結果,此次籌募成功讓3家新創企業成立,也希望鼓勵更多創投或資本家加入、提供學界創業育成種子基金。
健康新體驗的創始團隊,亦在本屆的新創獎競賽中獲獎。來自清華大學的研發團隊,利用生物化學及奈米製程技術,將目標生物分子呈現在試紙上。期能利用"Lab on Paper" 的技術,讓疾病檢測變得容易且方便,為大家帶來更多的生活便利性。檢測結果將以簡單的試紙顏色變化來呈現,讓民眾可以利用簡單、快速的檢測方式,就能了解是否有受到疾病或感染。
健康新體驗未來更希望能發展APP的自動判讀、記錄,以提供民眾自己做定期檢測、長期追蹤的健康管理模式。
The 11th National New Innovation Awards ceremony was held on the 9th. The deputy president Dun-Yi Wu and the founder of the Taiwan Healthcare, Jin-Ping Wang, presented 32 award-winning teams of enterprises, academic research, and clinical innovations. President of the Taiwan Healthcare, Wei-Zhao Chen, said that in the past, R&D and high-risk technologies were generally not invested in venture capital, and the technology could only stay in the laboratory. Therefore, the Taiwan Healthcare and Diamond Biotech signed a cooperation in 2012, selected the topic from the competition platform, assisted in the financing of ventures for the early innovation of academic technology, and enabled these early-stage R&D results to have an opportunity to bear fruit. The successful fundraising has allowed the establishment of three start-up companies, and it is also hoped to encourage more venture capitalists or capitalists to join and provide seed funds.
The founding team of Hygeia Touch also won the award in this competition. The R&D team from Tsinghua University used biochemistry and nano-fabrication technology to coated target bio-molecules on the test paper. We use the "Lab on Paper" technology to make disease detection become easy and convenient, and bring more benefit to life. The results will be presented in an easy way, allowing people to use simple, fast color changes to see if they got diseases or were infected.
In the future, Hygeia Touch hopes to develop the automatic image interpretation and recording APP, provide the personal health management of the regular health check and long-term health tracking.
