● Venture Studio · Biotech & AI

From science — to economy.

We take Russian scientific R&D and turn it into market-ready businesses, then sell them to strategic buyers. Every project passes through our 3E filter: Ecology → Emotions → Economy. Parent structure in Singapore, R&D in Russia.

3E Studio philosophy: Ecology → Emotions → Economy
3 Preclinically validated products on the PolyGate platform
Sep 16 PolyGate patent filing, 2026

Mission

The 3E filter

Every portfolio project passes this check before receiving the studio's capital and resources — a working selection criterion, not a slogan.

E

Ecology — reproducible technologies

Nature-like technologies and biotech that reduce humanity's footprint on the planet. For PolyGate this is literal: solvent-free mechanochemical synthesis instead of classical chemistry.

E

Emotions — human health and wellbeing

A healthy environment leads to healthier, happier people — from insulin tablets instead of injections to safe antidotes that don't require hospitalization.

E

Economy — efficiency and growth

Happier people are more creative — they build new technologies and drive economic efficiency. The studio's goal: at least 3 successful exits in 5 years.

Portfolio

Two projects, one logic

We build companies on proven science, bring them to product quality through our own ARCHITECT, and sell them to strategic buyers.

🧬

PolyGate

Not a drug — a delivery platform built on the chitosan biopolymer, with three independently validated preclinical products.
Studio's first planned exit

Oral insulin "Hitalin"

Tablets instead of injections for type 1 diabetes. Active only at elevated glucose levels — does not induce hypoglycemia at normal blood sugar.

↓ up to 78% glucose, preclinical

Anti-TB complex

The chitosan-isoniazid complex boosts and de-risks standard tuberculosis therapy.

3× activity (1 µg/ml vs. 3), 2–4× lower dose

Transdermal KDTsVIM antidote

Carbon monoxide antidote, no injections or hospitalization — for emergency services and industrial safety. No trade name of its own yet; "Acizol" is a different, existing reference product, not ours.

Active in 30 min, 6× longer in blood, 20× safety margin
Target buyer: mid-size pharma and biotech seeking a licensable platform for their own pipelines. Status (September 2026): project entity registered in Russia — OOO "PolyGate" (June 18, 2026); preclinical results submitted for publication to International Journal of Molecular Sciences and Molecules (MDPI). Science lead — Sergey Sergeevich Markin, MD, DSc, professor, co-creator of the "Fortelysin" thrombolytic drug (used in over 200,000 patients). Roadmap: patent filing — September 16, 2026 → publication of one paper per product in international scientific journals, in parallel — updated pharmacodynamics testing at Sechenov University → start of licensing sales in Russia and, in parallel, globally. Goal: exit within 18 months (roughly early 2028). None of the products have entered human clinical trials.

ARCHITECT

A smart platform for evaluating investment efficiency in innovation projects. Built to screen portfolio projects without error and forecast their path from idea to economic implementation. It has already passed its first real test: it selected PolyGate. Designed as a multi-industry system and taken to the external market for two customer types.
In development
1. Document searchRAG over patents, R&D records, dissertations
2. Project scoringtechnological readiness (TRL) + market potential (TAM/SAM/SOM)
3. Patent counselfreedom-to-operate and market niches
4. Health-preservation trackclinical trial data forecasting
Two customer types: the direct market — companies and developers in new health-preservation technologies, and investment funds evaluating their own R&D projects (the current direction targeted for the first pilot) — and development institutions/government funds (e.g., the Innovation Assistance Fund, the Bortnik Foundation) as a scaling target. As it grows, the strategy is expanding into other industries, including the wider biotech/pharma market. Engineering implementation partner — FB Consult (the Fora CRM platform, 20+ years implementing CRM/BI systems, 100+ projects for Russian and CIS banks). Honestly: the architecture was designed as multi-industry (redesigned in September 2026), the product is in development, no demo pilot with either customer type yet. No pilot partner chosen — direct-market candidates are still being confirmed; on the development-institution side, the Innovation Assistance Fund and similar organizations are under consideration.

Who we're useful for

Pick what's relevant — the offer and next step differ by audience.

Pharma / biotech corporations

Don't buy a drug — buy a platform. Licensing PolyGate opens access to three product lines at once.

Health-preservation technology companies, investment funds

We built ARCHITECT for ourselves — so we wouldn't make mistakes screening our own venture projects. TRL, market-potential, and freedom-to-operate scoring for your own R&D projects.

Set up a pilot →

Development institutions & government funds

The same system we use to screen our own projects — applied to a pipeline of external grant applications. ARCHITECT's scaling direction.

Founders with a scientific asset

If you have research without a business wrapper, we take on capitalization, legal structure, and the path to exit.

Talent and experts

A real scientific asset with preclinical data and an experienced engineering implementation partner (FB Consult) — not another pilot that goes nowhere.
