Its AGROBODY technology platform uses engineered proteins derived from camelid antibody fragments to target crop pests and pathogens with high specificity, offering an alternative to conventional chemical pesticides. Biotalys is listed on Euronext Brussels (https://techwiki.ai/cities/brussels/llms.txt) and has raised EUR 61M or more in total capital to advance its product pipeline through regulatory approval and toward commercial launch.
