Healthcare is complex.
Vaccines, should be easy.
We make vaccine prep easier & faster for caregivers & patients.
SAFELY MOVING FORWARD WITH
Malaria, MMR & COVID-19 Vaccines.
We are developing the SureVax(tm) for the Malaria, MMR and COVID-19 vaccines & others.
THE SUREVAX(tm) CAN →
Reduce the risk of adverse side effects.
Help optimize
vaccine efficacy.
Increase the number of available doses.
Simplify caregivers' preparation work.
Inefficiency isDeadly.
Two of the most advanced COVID-19 vaccines will be shipped freeze-dried (lyophilized) & need to be mixed or reconstituted immediately before injection.
WHY THIS IS AN ISSUE...
Many vaccines expire within 30 minutes of mixing; others within a few hours — even when stored in coolers.
According to the W.H.O. & G.A.V.I. the existing manual process for mixing freeze-dried vaccines wastes between 40-70% of vaccines in the field & in clinics.
Manual mixing is a huge source of the waste. It can take nearly an hour to mix 100 doses — and by then a most of those mixed are already expired or quickly expiring.
BOB LIVOLSI
President + CEO, Vaccine Systems
Our Founder
Story.
With a long personal history (with his wife) of supporting NGOs in sub-Saharan Africa and Central America, Bob learned about the vaccine wastage problem in humanitarian vaccination campaigns run by Médecins Sans Frontières in 2014. That led to the invention of the Automated Vaccine Reconstitution System, which was patented in 2018.
Bob has been a senior executive in both the Fortune 25 & in start-ups. His track record of success includes two IPOs as a member of the senior executive team.
In addition to medical devices, Bob has extensive experience in enterprise software and data storage systems. His background includes a global VP role in Hewlett Packard’s data storage group where his team conceived and built HP’s billion dollar CD-R business, VP & General Manager of Exabyte’s Eagle Division partnering with Philips Electronics and developing new methods for recording and playback of digital content, Sr Vice President of Crossroads Systems, and a director level role at SAP. He was founder and CEO of Abbey House Media which solved critical storage and download challenges for digital content that, until that time, could take many minutes instead of seconds.
Bob is an advisor to PandemicTech, an innovation community committed to fighting pandemic infectious disease. He has a vaccinology certificate from the Institut Pasteur in Paris, studying under leading experts in the field. He also did post graduate executive education at Stanford University and Insead University.
