The Business

The number of potentially devastating respiratory viruses has been increasing in frequency (SARS, MERS, Bird-flu, COVID-19). It is evident that there is a crucial need for new interventions to both prevent and treat viral infection as and when it occurs

The Challenge

1) New emerging Covid strains are putting pressure on vaccines to remain effective and threatening global recovery.
2) There is global inequality of vaccine distribution – Africa has very limited supplies.

The Opportunity

1) Covimro works with any enveloped virus not just Coronavirus.
2) Effective regardless of mutations or strains, making it future proof.
3) The virus agnostic feature creates new opportunities beyond Covid

Covimro™ guarantees both Efficacy AND Safety.

The Market

Covimro™ is future proofed against new strains making it the most viable alternative for 30% of the global population (2 billion + people) that do not have access to vaccines.

“I have a strong belief that Covimro products, whilst not an alternative to the vaccine, will be invaluable in helping to close the gap in the fight to control the pandemic…”Omar Sey, former Health Minister of Gambia, and former Executive Board Member of World Health Organisation.

Brand Positioning Statement
“For those who do not have access to vaccines, Covimro™ offers relief with its unique ability to knock out any virus with zero side effects.”

Progress/ Proof

3 successful landmark scientific study results with press releases below.

September 2020: Leeds University Coronavirus EM Study.

Results show Covimro disintegrating Coronavirus within minutes of contact.

“Our current pilot studies have suggested changes in virus integrity in the presence of Covimro with degradation of the viral spikes. This is significant as the infectivity of the virus will be lost if we can degrade the spike structure”Dr Stephen Muench, School of Biomedical Sciences, University of Leeds.

March 2021: Oxford University HIV/Lentivirus In Vitro Study.

Results show a 3-log reduction in viral titre at all concentrations tested.

“The results show a 3-log reduction in viral titre at all concentrations tested. This preliminary data warrants further investigation in to the Covimro effect,” – Dr. Senthil Chinnakannan, Molecular Virologist, University of Oxford.

July 2021: AI-R Clinical Research & Pharmidex. In Vivo Animal Model Study assessing Covimro against Influenza.

Results show 65% reduction in lung viral load.

“In a pre-clinical model of influenza infection bearing many hallmarks of seasonal flu mediated clinical disease, daily oral Covimro treatment was shown to significantly reduce virus replication (42% vs vehicle control) and protection against associated weight loss (65% vs vehicle control),” Dr Ross Walton, Respiratory Immunologist, A-IR Clinical Research Ltd.

The Deal

We have previously raised £100k pre seed investment from our lead investor Dr Kyle Hoedebecke and are now looking to raise £2.5m in seed investment. The minimum ticket size per investor is £25k. In the event we are oversubscribed, up to £5m investment may be secured.

The strong results of the July 2021 In Vivo animal model studies is reflected in the pre-money valuation of £25m. The valuation is at the lower end of the scale as detailed in the Valuation Report below. It has been independently assessed using Qualitative Methods, VC Method and DCF Methods.

We are planning for a Series A biotech VC investment next year, which represents an early exit opportunity for Angel Investors.

We have secured both EIS and SEIS advanced assurance offering tax relief for UK investors. Use of funds is detailed in the Use of Funds Spreadsheet. Active investor participation is welcomed.
