Nūmi, the biotech company that invents a cellular substitute for infant milk 09/11/2023
- Nūmi is a start-up offering an innovative alternative solution: milk produced by cell culture.
- Nūmi's technology involves taking cells from mammary glands, placing them in a culture medium to proliferate, and then recovering the milk produced.
- Nūmi is the result of a meeting between Eden Banon-Lagrange, formerly of Entrepreneur First, and Eugénie Pezé-Heidsieck, a specialist in cell biology.
- The market for milk produced by cell culture is in its embryonic stage, with Danone as one of the main interested parties.
- Nūmi was founded in 2023 and is currently in the R&D phase.
- The start-up has raised three million euros in pre-seed funding from Investors Heartcore Capital, HCVC and Financière Saint-James.
- Nūmi plans to increase staff to six
- The start-up plans to develop a first product for infants aged 0-6 months and sell it to dairy and pharmaceutical manufacturers.
- Nūmi plans to move quickly towards industrialization and is considering raising further funds.
- The start-up is primarily targeting the American market, due to shorter maternity leave than in Europe and authorities more open to cell biology.
