TechnoVax is a privately held near-clinical-stage biotechnology company based in Tarrytown, NY specializing in viral vaccine development. Our mission is to create and advance towards the market safe, unique and novel vaccine technologies with no current alternatives that will revolutionize the way vaccines are developed, distributed and administered. 

TechnoVax has developed a next-generation technology-platform based on Virus-Like Particles (VLP) that greatly enhances and facilitates the development and production of a limitless range of vaccines targeting the prevention of respiratory diseases as well as hemorrhagic fevers, immunodeficiency and cancers. The industry strongly believes that VLP based vaccines is the technology of the future! 

Our vaccines pipeline has been rapidly approaching the clinical phases with 3 main candidates: 
- A Universal flu vaccine that will eliminate the need for annual flu vaccination and will protect faster and better against future pandemic strains; 
- An Inhaled Powder flu vaccine that eliminates the need for cold chain storage and distribution and could be self-administered: a greatly needed solution for the developing world; 
- An RSV vaccine to protect against one of the leading causes of infant and elderly hospitalizations and often results in fatalities with the elderly. 

We have received over $5.0 million in non-dilutive funding. We are actively pursuing strategic partnerships and are seeking funding to start human testing.
