GenovaBio
Biotech startup engineering microbiomes to improve human health and sustainable agriculture.
Pre-Seed
GenovaBio
GenovaBio pioneers microbiome engineering to create therapies and agricultural solutions that are sustainable and effective. On the healthcare side, they develop targeted probiotics that improve gut health and immunity. In agriculture, their biofertilizers reduce reliance on chemical inputs, improving crop yield while protecting the soil.
Investment Impact
Forma VC came in at Seed, helping GenovaBio position itself as a dual-market biotech innovator. The firm connected the startup with clinical research networks and agriculture cooperatives, accelerating both sides of its growth story.
“Forma VC’s network unlocked doors in both healthcare and agriculture — giving us the rare chance to scale impact in two industries at once.”
