The start-up wants to simplify the production of pharmaceuticals. This is now convincing investors such as High-Tech Gründerfonds.
The biotech Irubis has raised 2.8 million euros in its seed round. High-Tech Gründerfonds (HTGF), Verve Ventures and Ventura BioMed invested in the round. The EIC Fund, the Initiative for Industrial Innovators and other business angels also participated. With the new funding, the startup plans to expand its team and bring the next product version to market.
Lorenz Sykora-Mirle, Alexander Geißler and Anja Müller founded Irubis in 2017. The start-up aims to automate the process development and production of biopharmaceutical drugs. It hopes to achieve this with the Monipa measurement system it has developed. The system could simplify the measurement of nutrients in cell cultivation and other quality parameters, it said.
"Sensitive and robust measurements without additional time-consuming calibration are a long-sought need for biopharmaceutical drug production," said Laura Pedroza, investment manager at High-Tech Gründerfonds. "Irubis meets this need with its innovative and reliable Monipa technology."
