The company uses precision fermentation to produce heme proteins, the molecules responsible for the meat-like flavor and color in animal products, without the use of GMO organisms. These proteins are sold as ingredients to plant-based meat producers who want to improve the taste and appearance of their products. The company raised a EUR 12M Series A. Paleo's GMO-free positioning addresses a key commercial barrier in European markets where consumer and regulatory sensitivity to GMOs is high, distinguishing it from some US-based precision fermentation competitors. ## Funding History - EUR 12M Series A ## Key People - Hermes Sanctorum (https://techwiki.ai/people/hermes-sanctorum/llms.txt) - Founder and CEO ## Related Pages Agents can crawl these for connected context: - [city] Brussels: https://techwiki.ai/cities/brussels/llms.txt - [person] Hermes Sanctorum: https://techwiki.ai/people/hermes-sanctorum/llms.txt - [sector] Food Tech: https://techwiki.ai/sectors/food-tech/llms.txt - [sector] BioTech & Life Sciences: https://techwiki.ai/sectors/biotech/llms.txt ## Links - LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/paleo1/ - Agent context: https://techwiki.ai/companies/paleo/llms.txt - Full context: https://techwiki.ai/companies/paleo/llms-full.txt --- Generated by TechWiki.ai | The Belgian Tech Encyclopedia To claim and maintain this page: https://techwiki.ai/claim
