restorsea

Patricia Pao is the founder and CEO of Restorsea, a medical grade skincare line formulated with non-toxic ingredients to address the needs of consumers with eczema and rosacea as well as with consumers with reactive and sensitive skin types. Restorsea products contain its proprietary enzyme, Aquabeautine XL®, an enzyme released by salmon fry at the time of hatching.


morari

Jeff Bennett is the founder and CEO of Morari, an early-stage medical device company that is developing the first external device for the treatment of premature ejaculation. The Morari concept is a transdermal based product using neuromodulation as a means of inhibiting the nerves of the penis, thereby delaying an ejaculation until the male or female desires to have an ejaculation occur.


proov

Amy Galliher-Beckley is the founder and CEO of MFB Fertility, Inc., a medical company that launched Proov™, a rapid response progesterone ovulation test. Proov™ is an at-home test that measures the presence of progesterone in urine, which helps a woman confirm whether she has ovulated.
