The European Circular Bioeconomy Fund (ECBF) has invested approximately $7 million USD in the $45 million USD Series B financing round of Nuritas, a biotechnology company revolutionizing the discovery and use of plant-based bioactive peptides through artificial intelligence (AI) and genomics. The round was led by Chicago-based Cleveland Avenue and additional investors including Grosvenor’s Wheatsheaf Group, Vertex holdings, Veronorte and CJ. Previous rounds were led by Cultivian Sandbox Ventures and Singapore-based VisVires New Protein, both of whom participated in this round. Other early investors include U2’s Bono and The Edge, Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff and Ali Partovi. This brings total funding to date of $75 million USD.

This new funding will accelerate Nuritas’ global expansion and support its mission to unlock the power of nature to make many of the products we consume daily healthier, safer and more sustainable.

“The mission and vision of Nuritas™ are in line with the zeitgeist of our time. There is an ever pressing demand for clean label products that maximize human well-being and health while simultaneously contributing towards a more sustainable, plant-based economy,” said Marie Asano, Principal at ECBF.
