About The Customer
Glyphic Biotechnologies, Inc. is a biotechnology startup that is making significant strides in the field of proteomics, the study of the protein complement of a genome. These proteins inside the cell provide insights into disease processes, aging, and other biological phenomena. The company is developing a first-of-its-kind, next-generation protein sequencing platform to enable researchers to gain novel insights into biology and disease. Led by Joshua Yang, Glyphic Biotechnologies, Inc. recently raised $6 million in seed funding to further develop their product.
The Challenge
Glyphic Biotechnologies, Inc., a biotechnology startup revolutionizing the field of proteomics, was facing challenges in managing and documenting meeting action items. The traditional method of writing down action items during meetings was proving inefficient, as it was difficult to keep up with the speaker and easy to miss important information. Furthermore, the process of taking notes during meetings was distracting, reducing the team's presence and focus on the discussions. The team often found themselves interrupting the speaker to repeat information, extending the duration of meetings. Additionally, organizing and maintaining these notes for easy access and reference was a significant challenge, given the high number of meetings the team was having daily.
The Solution
Glyphic Biotechnologies, Inc. found a solution to their challenges in Fireflies, a tool that automatically records and transcribes every meeting word for word. This allowed team members to search post-meeting transcripts for tasks discussed during the meeting using AI filters in the Smart Search area. This eliminated the need for manual note-taking during meetings, allowing team members to focus on the discussion. Furthermore, Fireflies provided a platform for clarifying action items. In the Threads section of Fireflies Notebook, meeting participants could jot down their comments or questions about specific tasks discussed during the meeting. The task assignee could then respond to these questions, ensuring clear communication and understanding of tasks.

Flow Robotics: Scaling Up Production and Accelerating Product Development with IoT
Flow Robotics, a Danish manufacturer, developed flowbot™ ONE pipetting robots to alleviate the strain on bioanalysts in life-science laboratories and hospitals across Europe. These robots were designed to automate part of the testing process, speeding up the time it takes to produce results and reducing pressure on staff. However, the company faced challenges in scaling up production and accelerating product development. High workloads and physically challenging conditions have long been an issue for laboratory professionals. Flow Robotics estimates that around half of medical lab technicians carry out the same arm movements for at least a quarter of their working day. The American Society for Clinical Pathology reported that 85% of laboratory professionals feel burnt out; 36% struggle with inadequate staffing; and 32% face a heavy workload and pressure to complete all testing on time.

Revolutionizing Aerospace Industry with 3D Printing: A 63% Lighter Titanium Part
GE Aviation, a renowned name in the aerospace industry, recognized the potential of 3D printing technology in transforming the sector. The primary challenge was to reduce the weight of the aerospace parts, which would directly impact the fuel costs. A lighter airplane would mean lower fuel consumption, leading to cost savings and a smaller carbon footprint. However, achieving this weight reduction without compromising the strength and functionality of the parts was a significant challenge. Traditional manufacturing methods were not able to provide the desired weight reduction while maintaining the required stiffness and strength of the parts. The challenge was to find a solution that could create strong, light, and functional aerospace parts.

IWT's Transformation: Customizing with Efficiency in IoT
IWT, a company specializing in the design, manufacture, and installation of washing systems for the life sciences and pharmaceutical industries, faced a significant challenge in managing its wide product portfolio. The company manufactures 45 different models, 60% of which are customized to some degree. This high level of customization, combined with limited production quantities, necessitated a controlled process for managing the release of engineering changes. The goal was to achieve efficiency, reduce process time, and better coordinate production throughout the organization. The need for strict compliance in heavily regulated industries further complicated the situation. IWT's existing PLM journey with Dassault Systèmes’ SOLIDWORKS for 3D CAD and Enovia for managing CAD data and Bills of Materials (BOMs) was proving inadequate. The system had limited part classification, no workflow, and no tool to ensure data consistency. The management of non-CAD documents was also a challenge, with information often difficult to find and access.
