Config

Config was started in 2017 with two primary objectives. The first objective is to build a product company for the long term. A company where employees would want to work because they, and the work they do, matter. It’s not going to be a startup looking for funding with an exit strategy even before it started. A family owned company that can be passed down to the next generation. The second objective is to create a scholarship program for less fortunate kids. Kids who have the passion for learning but can’t go to school because they lack the financial means to do so. Seeing kids move on to good careers, helping improve their family’s quality of life, is what keeps us going. Config is a SaaS provider with a focus on managing configuration files. Earlier in 2017, we noticed a high demand for such a service, and the shortage of easy alternatives for programmers, system administrators and IT managers. Our service allows users to access their configuration files easily and quickly, across all their servers and environments, making for a more streamlined and hassle-free workflow. Config is committed to making a difference. As a family-owned business, we genuinely care about our legacy, and we strive to make a positive impact in our community. Config donates 20% of the company’s net income to educational scholarships for the benefits of less fortunate kids who can’t afford to go to school.

Mestastop® Solutions

Cancer can be broken down into four parts; mainly initiation, progression, immunosuppression, and finally metastasis, leading to death. Initiation and progression happen due to genetic reasons along with the interplay of the tumor microenvironment, whereas immunosuppression is the inefficiency of the body’s immune system to recognize and destroy cancer cells. Metastasis is the movement of tumor cells through the blood and the formation of multiple tumors into different secondary sites of the body. Metastasis is responsible for almost 90% of cancer deaths. Unfortunately, though cancer treatment has advanced with targeted therapy and immunotherapy, there is still a huge gap as none of them addresses metastasis. One of the main reasons for these are the challenges faced in advancing a molecule targeting metastasis; from suitable In vitro models to the perfect animal model that will closely resemble the biology without alleviating cost and timelines. Mestastop aims to provide a solution for such challenges with their unique proprietary platforms, METAssay, METSCAN, and METVivo.
