Through the incubator, Israeli medtech talent could get "one stop shop" service to access the capital market and healthcare market in China.

Chaim Lotan, MD also gave a brief introduction to some previous Israel investment either DiNovA Medtech or DiNovA Medtech's portfolio companies have made, such as Keystone Heart, a good complement to Venus Medtech(HK.02500)'s TAVR product lines, NoYA Medical, a novel solution to treat heart failure, Human Xtentions, Healium Medical, most recently Pi-Cardia, and the list goes on. Now the new incubator itself intends to invest in three or more projects in Israel annually.

At the same DiNovA Session and the Heart Failure Session of ICI 2020, four existing portfolio companies of DiNovA Medtech based in mainland China introduced their advanced technologies and latest clinical development, including WeFlow-Arch Modular Stent Graft from Weiqiang, Valve Technologies from Venus Medtech, DragonFly Valve Repair Device from Valgen, and Radiofrequency Interatrial Shunt System from NoYA.
