We don’t place bets. We make science fiction a reality.

AgZen is the pioneer of feedback-optimized agriculture, a new approach that improves outcomes and reduces costs for every part of the direct-ag-inputs industry. AgZen’s patented sprayer retrofits and formulations, developed at MIT, allow farmers to spray 50% less pesticides while maintaining crop health and yield.

​​Debut produces high-value ingredients for the cosmetic, food, and health & wellness markets rapidly and more sustainably. Low-value and sustainable feedstocks can be used as inputs in place of petrochemicals, while reactions can be generated in a fraction of the time. These breakthroughs result in a more sustainable and cost-effective approach to manufacturing ingredients, including those inaccessible in nature.

GALY leverages plant stem cells to grow high-quality cotton in a lab instead of on big farms, at a rate that is ten times faster than traditional cotton farming. With a process that uses 77% less water, 80% less land and emits an 84% smaller CO2 footprint than traditional cotton manufacturing, Galy’s goal is to safeguard the environment and transition the world to cellular agriculture.

Huue is using UC Berkeley bioengineering research to develop sustainable biosynthetic dyes that offer a highly effective alternative to conventional dye manufacturing. Their environmentally friendly process requires no fossil fuels and creates significantly less pollution than traditional technologies.

Mattiq creates proprietary megalibraries of nanomaterials on a single chip that is then used to accelerate the discovery and development of sustainable products in a wide range of industrial sectors.

Tierra Biosciences is a synthetic biology company that accelerates the pace of discovery to enable the next generation of bio-based materials. Tierra’s Protein Platform couples high-throughput protein manufacturing with the simplicity of e-commerce to make ordering custom proteins easier than ever before. By lowering traditional protein synthesis barriers, Tierra serves researchers looking to change the world with novel proteins.
