Commercializes C1 and Dapibus microbial platforms that produce recombinant proteins and enzymes for life sciences, food and nutrition, and bio-industrial applications. The organization is shifting from technology development toward commercial operations.
C1 and Dapibus platforms develop and produce recombinant proteins and enzymes. C1, a microbial expression system formerly used for industrial enzymes and other proteins, retained pharmaceutical-use rights after the industrial business was sold; Dapibus targets non-therapeutic life sciences, food and nutrition, and bio-industrial applications. The operation is shifting from technology development toward commercial execution, with US operations and a satellite office in the Netherlands.
Commercialization depends on third parties and is shaped by capital needs, intellectual-property exposure, regulation, and Nasdaq listing standards. The business retains a broader biopharmaceutical platform opportunity alongside current non-therapeutic commercial inputs.
