We are excited to announce that bespark*bio has successfully secured Seed funding from aws (Austria Wirtschaftsservice), marking a major milestone in our journey!

In 2023, aws PreSeed funding gave us the vital support to launch the development of our groundbreaking Gene Therapy Technology. That backing enabled us to make strong progress and generate promising data, validating our approach.

Now, with Seed funding in place, we’re accelerating the development of cutting-edge technology with the potential to transform the treatment of genetic disorders.

We are deeply grateful to aws for their continued support in helping us bring this vision closer to reality!

It’s been a while, but we’re back with fantastic news: bespark*bio has received a Life Sciences Grant from FFG! This funding plays a pivotal role in advancing our groundbreaking Gene Therapy Technology, helping us push the boundaries of innovation.

At bespark*bio, our mission is to revolutionize biomanufacturing by making it more efficient, scalable, and cost-effective.

While Gene Therapy holds enormous potential for treating a wide array of diseases, significant barriers still hinder its widespread use. Our technology aims to close these gaps, making Gene Therapy more accessible and affordable for patients worldwide.

A huge thank you to FFG for believing in our vision and supporting us on this exciting journey!
