A team of students and a professor at the American University in Cairo teamed up to create a technology based on bio products that could help heal wounds in a natural way. Selected as one of the candidates for the MIT Enterprise Forum Arab Competition, Professor Hassan Azzazy talked to BarakaBits to explain what this promising startup is about. Within three years, we have managed to turn the research idea into a prototype with one patent application. We are now in the process of developing specialized wound dressings containing effective antibacterials and wound healing products, as well as optimizing large scale production of the nanofiber wound dressings. We have also identified several natural as well as synthetic products to target specialized wounds such as burns and diabetic foot. On the business side, we are seeking more funding and appropriate partnerships to accelerate development and marketing efforts.
