PARTNER WITH THE LATEST INNOVATIONS IN CELL AND GENE THERAPEUTICS
PARTNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
The BioFoundry is a federally funded startup program designed to support researchers commercializing technology in the biopharmaceutical industry, with a specialized focus on cell and gene therapeutics and associated industries such as protein, MABs, and vaccine developers.
​
We scout national and international universities, startups, and researchers to find the most promising, innovative, and interesting therapeutics startups who are preparing to fundraise for a Series A.
Your partnership gains you early access to investment-ready companies. Get to know these entrepreneur-scientists, help them succeed, and get an inside look at the newest breakthroughs coming out of university and pharmaceutical research.
