By Lisa Craig, lmc91@uakron.edu ![]() O2 RegenTech, a startup spun out of The University of Akron and originally founded by Dr. Nic Leipzig, has received $100,000 in funding from the Innovation Fund Northeast Ohio. Leipzig, an associate professor in chemical and biomolecular engineering, was joined by Dr. Andreas Inmann, an experienced medical device entrepreneur to commercialize cost-effective, easy-to-use wound care solutions based on technology originally developed at Leipzig’s UA lab. The proprietary technology is used by O2 RegenTech in an initial product offering, OXAID™, as an oxygen-releasing, moist, antimicrobial dressing to promote chronic wound healing.
