    Equity Management Platform Powering Ownership at Scale | Qapita | Made with Endiya

    Ownership is one of the most powerful incentives a company can offer - but managing it has historically been fragmented, opaque, and operationally heavy. Qapita is redefining how companies think about equity, turning it from an administrative burden into a strategic lever for growth.Built for founders, finance teams, and employees, Qapita brings together cap table management, ESOPs, valuations, and compliance into a single, intuitive platform. It simplifies complex equity workflows while ensuring transparency across stakeholders - something critical as companies scale across geographies and regulatory environments.But what makes Qapita stand out is not just efficiency - it’s the shift in mindset it enables. Equity is no longer a backend function; it becomes a tool to attract, retain, and align talent with long-term company value. By digitising ownership, Qapita helps organisations build trust internally while staying investor-ready externally.In a world where startups are global from day one, and talent expects clarity and fairness, Qapita is quietly powering a more structured and equitable future of ownership.Made with Endiya| Episode 6, where systems that build trust become companies that scale.

    Restoring Vision with Stem Cells | Eyestem | Made with Endiya

    Eyestem is tackling one of the most complex and underserved challenges in healthcare: irreversible vision loss caused by retinal degeneration. Diseases such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and other retinal disorders progressively destroy photoreceptor cells in the eye, leading to permanent blindness. Globally, millions of people are affected, with limited treatment options available once the damage reaches an advanced stage. Existing therapies can slow progression in some cases but rarely restore lost vision. The core problem is biological - human retinal cells do not regenerate naturally, and once lost, they cannot be replaced through conventional medicine. Eyestem’s approach is rooted in regenerative medicine, specifically the use of stem cell-derived therapies to replace damaged retinal cells. By developing retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells from stem cells, Eyestem aims to restore the function of the retina at a cellular level. These lab-grown cells are designed to integrate into the patient’s eye, support surviving photoreceptors, and potentially bring back lost visual function. The company is building scalable, high-quality manufacturing processes to ensure these cells can be produced consistently and safely for clinical use. What makes this approach compelling is its potential to shift treatment from management to restoration. Instead of slowing decline, Eyestem is working toward reversing damage - addressing the root cause rather than symptoms. If successful, this could redefine how degenerative eye diseases are treated, moving from chronic care to one-time or limited interventions with long-term impact. In doing so, Eyestem is not just developing a therapy, but opening a pathway to restoring vision for millions who currently have no viable options.
