About
LinearBeam - Protons for Life is a company focused on developing advanced proton therapy systems for cancer treatment. As a spin-off of Itel Telecomunicazioni, it is dedicated to the ERHA (Enhanced Radiotherapy with Hadrons) project, which aims to create the first proton linear accelerator (p-Linac) specifically for cancer therapy. The company has received significant funding, including a €14.9 million investment from the European Investment Bank, to support its innovative technology. The core product, the ERHA system, utilizes a linear accelerator to produce proton beams for precise tumor targeting while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissues. This system features a smaller physical footprint, making it more cost-effective and environmentally friendly compared to traditional proton therapy systems. LinearBeam also offers a comprehensive solution that includes robotic patient positioning, treatment planning software, and facility layout proposals for proton therapy centers. Its target customers include cancer treatment centers, hospitals, and public health institutions looking to enhance their oncology capabilities.
