BLOOMFIELDS HILLS – Four startups

will pitch their companies to potential investors on June 8 at the next meeting

of the Great Lakes Angels. Attendance is limited to qualified investors and

members.

The startups are:

 

Armune BioScience, www.armune.com

Armune

BioScience is a medical diagnostic company that has developed, validated and is

now marketing Apfiny, the only prostate cancer specific, non-PSA blood test

available in the world. PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) is currently used to

guide clinical decisions, but an elevated PSA value may be prostate cancer or

could be the result of an infection, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), or

some other condition. This leads to unnecessary referrals from primary care to

urologists, unnecessary prostate biopsies, and needless stress and anxiety for

patients. Apifiny addresses these PSA

shortcomings.

 

Detroit Bikes, http://detroitbikes.com/

Detroit

Bike’s mission is to encourage cycling by making an accessible, enjoyable

bicycle while continuing Detroit’s legacy of quality manufacturing and design. Detroit Bikes are built in a city with

manufacturing prowess and deep traditions of bicycle production, touring, recreational

riding, commuting, and racing. We are located on Detroit’s west side at 13639

Elmira Street. In our 50,000 square-foot factory we have the capacity to

produce 100 bicycles a day, marking the return of high-volume US frame

manufacturing.

fitness centers, hospitals, and laundries prevent the theft of towels, linens,
