Cori Clinical

Cori Clinical: The intelligence layer for accelerating clinical trials. We turn clinical trial insight and organisational experience into a living blueprint of the trial, from the initial trial idea to first patient in. We’re working with leading biotechs, CROs, and research institutions, backed by operators in life sciences and AI - to empower clinical teams to move faster, stay aligned, and raise quality without compromising compliance. Cori provides one workspace for the entire trial start-up: research, design, authoring, review, protocol modifications. Cori is AI-guided: it drafts, your team decides. So the science never waits on the process.

Valarian

Valarian builds infrastructure for organisations operating in high-trust, high-stakes environments. Our core product, ACRA, is a secure, compartmentalised backbone designed to run and protect mission-critical applications — now proven at the edge in portable GPU clusters as well as in the cloud and on-premise. We developed ACRA when existing infrastructure failed to meet real-world risk — where segmentation breaks down, audit trails disappear, and lateral movement cannot be contained. Valarian is a UK-founded and UK-led company, and backed by leading defence and national security investors. We are a homegrown team with backgrounds across defence, secure communications, high-assurance systems, and enterprise software — engineers and operators who have worked in environments where a lost signal or a missed audit can carry real consequences. We design like users because we’ve been them.

pubX

An End-to-End Advertising Marketplace. Built on Trust. pubX connects publishers and advertisers through a transparent, data-driven marketplace built to deliver more efficient, higher-value programmatic outcomes for both sides. We use Agentic technology to drive real results at scale and ensure maximum active media is delivered to campaigns. Trusted for 5 years to build and deploy machine learning technology for publishers at scale, we've built the publisher relationships that make this possible. That foundation is what separates us from the experimental - our technology is battle-tested, our data is real, and our results speak for themselves. For publishers: first-party data becomes a competitive advantage, with sales agents negotiating the best value for every impression. For advertisers and agencies: buying agents autonomously evaluate premium inventory, build high-performing segments, and activate campaigns - powered by data unavailable through traditional programmatic. One platform. Two powerful solutions. Full transparency on both sides. A founding member of AgenticAdvertising.org.
