Probiota Pioneers

Thank you to our 2022 Probiota Pioneers.

As major universities look to spin-out and license key discoveries, global food and pharma businesses open up venture funds and external innovation programs and incubators to draw innovative entrepreneurs into their orbit – there are rich pickings for probiotic, prebiotic and microbiome pioneers in search of money, experience and a global platform for their ideas. But how can you win in a competitive environment?

NutraIngredients had been on the search for entrepreneurial consumer-facing, science or technology based start-ups and announced that Beo Therapeutics, Genbioma and Lactobio were confirmed as our 2022 Probiota Pioneers. 

Our 2022 Pioneers joined us at Probiota in Copenhagen. Delegates were able to meet with them at the Pioneers Hub in the networking area.

Beo Therapeutics AG develops oral bacterial products that counteract the effect on health of a modern lifestyle and ageing. This includes novel microbial treatments for arthritis and chronic kidney disease. Both diseases are associated with ageing and western lifestyle that can be prevented with the right treatment.
