Technology Transfer Office from Spain · Tarragona
The Institute of Chemical Research of Catalonia represents one of the very first fruits of the new scientific policy of the government of Catalonia (Spain) aimed at creating new research centres in strategic areas. ICIQ, in particular, has been created with the ambition of becoming a reference for chemistry in the European Research Space. Our society faces important challenges in the XXI century, among which health and environmental concerns are of outmost importance. Chemistry will play an essential role in both of these challenges. To succeed, our increasingly knowledge-based economy will require a solid and strong chemical industry; currently 150.000 jobs in Catalonia (and more than 2 million in the EU) directly arise from the chemical industry. In order for this industry to be successful in the future, it must take a sustainable approach based on the rational use of feed-stocks and raw materials. For this, fundamental chemical research needs to be funded and novel approaches into transforming matter must be developed. We at ICIQ consider that catalysis is the key activity for sustainable chemistry. Catalytic processes can minimize raw materials and energy consumption, and can lead to the selective formation of target products with minimal generation of wastes. In line with this consideration, we have taken catalysis as one of our main research topics. Complementary to our research focus, attention has been paid to the development of a simple and efficient organizational model for ICIQ, able to overcome known difficulties normally associated with larger and more traditional research institutions. The Institute of Chemical Research of Catalonia aims at bridging the gap between academic research and industry, focusing its research on catalytic chemical processes for applications in health, energy and sustainability. At ICIQ, we consider that patents are highly efficient, safe and solid tools to provide protection from competitors. This is why we file patents for our in-house developed-technologies: to give our co-development projects with industry a strong starting IP position. As a research centre our goal is always to co-develop our technology adapting it to the industrial partner’s specific needs and ultimately transfer the technology to this company, with a flexible licensing strategy adapted to each case. - Institute of Materials Science of Barcelona (ICMAB-CSIC)The Institute of Materials Science of Barcelona (ICMAB-CSIC) is a Severo Ochoa Centre of Excellence research center at Campus UAB focused on basic and applied research in Materials Science and Nanotechnology.

Applications and description of markets A. Functional foods The functional food market for cholesterol reducing products, such as Benecol™ and Becel Proactive™ alone (so excluding the food supplements market) was one billion dollar in 2003 and has tripled in 2008. In addition, the need for non prescription (over the counter) cholesterol reducing products, such as probiotics , is growing each year. B. Pharma In 2008 the world market for anti cholesterol drugs was worth over 25 billion dollar, making the anti cholesterol drugs the most financially attractive therapeutic area in the world. This therapeutic area can be divided into five main drug areas: • Statins • Cholesterol Intestinal Absorption Inhibitors • Fibric Acids • Nicotinic Acids • Bile Acid Sequestors The statin class dominates the market taking in 2008 over 90% of the market, worth an estimated $22 billion. C. Animal Feed On average 50 % of all foods consumed by humans is of animal origin. This includes milk, cheese, meat, eggs, butters, fats but also a vary large variety of derivatives such as pastry, cakes and mayonnaise. Adding ezCol to animal feed will result in human consumable products of animal origin that are low in cholesterol. Other Background on Cholesterol There is a need to reduce prescription drug expenditures, and one of the ways to accomplish this is to allocate more costs to consumers by increasing the number of switches from prescription medications to nonprescription over-the-counter (OTC). The United Kingdom is the first country to allow OTC sale of a cholesterol-lowering agent, and other countries, including the United States, are watching closely. The ezCol technology is very suitable for use in non prescription OTC nutraceuticals and foodstuffs. Existing cholesterol lowering agents contain phytosterols as their effective agent. There is an increasing amount of caution towards side-effects caused by phytosterols. This skepticism centers around suspected accumulation of the agent in brain tissue, reduced vitamin intake and increased risk of heart related diseases. Tests on rats have fed suspicions of unsafety for certain groups. Health Canada issued an advisory warning that Becel Pro-activ™ has not been approved for sale in Canada and may pose health risks to pregnant women, children, people on cholesterol-lowering medications and those predisposed to hemorrhagic strokes. Phytosterols are derived from plants. The development of a new cholesterol-lowering product that is more effective, less expensive and without negative connotations attached to existing products such as phytosterols, has significant potential. ezCol could offer all of these benefits. - IRST IRCCSOperativo dal 2007 all’interno delle strutture dell'ex Ospedale Civile di Meldola, IRST Srl è soggetto del Servizio Sanitario della Regione Emilia-Romagna e della Rete Oncologica della Romagna. L’IRST, quale centro dall’alto potenziale tecnologico e scientifico, è in grado di dialogare con le più qualificate strutture nazionali e internazionali di cura e studio delle patologie neoplastiche, proponendosi quale soggetto ideale per condurre ricerca ad alto livello e vocato alla formazione di personale medico e infermieristico. Il progetto IRST parte da un’alleanza pubblico-privato tra enti non profit. La forma scelta per far nascere l'IRST è stata quella della Società a responsabilità limitata (S.r.l.), una società senza scopo di lucro che ha tutte le caratteristiche richieste ad una Impresa Sociale fra cui il divieto di distribuzione degli utili e l’obbligo di investimento degli stessi nello svolgimento delle attività istituzionali previste dalla missione. L'Istituto Scientifico Romagnolo per lo Studio e la Cura dei tumori nasce per dar corpo ad una convinzione: la lotta alle malattie tumorali può esser vinta. I costanti progressi ottenuti nella prevenzione dell'insorgenza dei tumori, l'efficacia delle cure, quantificabile nella crescita degli indici di sopravvivenza e le continue conquiste ottenute dalla ricerca, testimoniano che quella che fino a poco tempo fa era una speranza, oggi è una realtà. Una realtà che si consolida giorno dopo giorno grazie al lavoro di migliaia di medici, ricercatori e scienziati nel mondo. In un’area medica largamente sperimentale come quella oncologica, affinché le scoperte raggiunte ricadano il prima possibile in ambito assistenziale, cura e ricerca non possono procedere disgiunte ma devono interagire continuamente. Per questo, all'interno dell'Istituto Scientifico Romagnolo per lo Studio e la Cura dei tumori, si crede fermamente nella necessità di stringere sempre più il legame tra assistenza, attività sperimentali e ricerca.
