Aegis Analytical Corp. Showcases Discoverant at Inaugural
Venture Capital in the Rockies Fall
SUN VALLEY, Idaho & LAFAYETTE, Colo. (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) September 9, 2008 --
Aegis Analytical Corp. today announced that it will present at the
inaugural Venture Capital in the
Rockies (VCIR) Fall conference, September 9-11, in Sun Valley,
Idaho. Showcasing the most promising emerging growth companies from the
Rocky Mountain region, the VCIR Fall
conference assembles hundreds of venture investors, CEOs, entrepreneurs
and service professionals to network and learn first hand about the
venture funding and entrepreneurial opportunities that are flourishing
throughout the region.
Robert Di Scipio, chief executive officer of Aegis, will present the
impact Aegis’ Discoverant®
software solution delivers to life sciences manufacturers, such as
Baxter, Biogen Idec, Genzyme and Merck Serono.
“Aegis is honored to be included in an
impressive group of emerging companies,” Di
Scipio commented. “We look forward to sharing
at VCIR how many of the world’s largest
pharmaceutical and biotech companies use Discoverant for
on-demand data access and analytics in both process development and
manufacturing environments to scale-up and better control their
manufacturing processes.”
Aegis’ Discoverant software provides
manufacturers with on-demand access to their disparate production data
integrated with powerful analysis, trending and reporting capabilities
which enable them to reduce process variability, accelerate products to
market and meet supply chain demands and compliance obligations.
Although Aegis has focused its efforts on the life sciences vertical
market, Discoverant is applicable to any manufacturing
environment in which production data is captured and analyzed to
determine root causes of production outcomes.
“VCIR Fall represents a significant milestone
for the Rocky Mountain venture capital community and the eight companies
that have been selected to present,” said
Mark Solon, RMVCA board member and conference chair of VCIR Fall 2008. “Aegis
Analytical’s technological innovation and
niche solution set positions them well to meet the challenges life
sciences organizations encounter today and anticipate tomorrow. We are
proud to have Aegis Analytical present and look forward to helping
advance Aegis for the next stage of its growth.”
Among the many speakers, noted anthropologist Wade Davis of National
Geographic will provide the conference’s
keynote presentation. Providing a unique perspective, Davis’
presentation, “The effects of globalization:
A journey through the realm of vanishing cultures,”
will discuss the impact that technology is having on our culture and
society. Additional speakers at the event will include Yahoo’s
Greg Cohn, Google’s Scott Green, HP’s
Sanjiv Parikh, Amazon’s Jeff Barr, as well as
Bob Maynard, chief investment officer with PERSI.
VCIR Fall will present companies ranging from seed stage through
expansion capital and will cover the spectrum from information
technology, to software to telecommunications. Participation was
selected based on a formal review and selection committee comprised of
venture capitalists from the region.
