Biologit is a Dublin-based business that screens data for possible risks in products for human or animal use as well as environmental risks. The artificial intelligence -focused company covers the pharmaceutical, medical devices, cosmetics and animal product sectors amongst others.
The idea for Biologit came from the two co-founders, who are partners, finding a crossover amongst their existing work. Ohana has a PhD in machine learning and working on large data sets while Baker is an immunologist who felt there had to be a better way to manage data. Despite knowing each other well and having a good spread of skills, it was still a risk for the pair to start the company. Baker left a good job in her field to develop this technology.
“Enterprise Ireland has helped a lot. We started in New Frontiers. From there, we had innovation vouchers and I went to Trinity College Dublin to apply for a commercialisation plan. We moved there to develop the project there at the Adapt centre,” Baker said.
