Algentech

Algentech is a private French green biotech company focused on synthetic biology and plant-based bioproduction. The company uses proprietary chloroplast engineering, genome-editing, and self-replicating minichromosome technologies to turn plants into green factories for the production of high-value biomolecules and active ingredients. Its platform is positioned for multisector applications spanning pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food, agritech, and industrial biobased products rather than a traditional human therapeutic pipeline. Publicly described products include melanin, antimicrobial proteins, and linear and circular RNAs, alongside partner-facing proof-of-concept and licensing offerings. Algentech appears to operate primarily as a platform and ingredient/technology company rather than a clinical-stage drug developer.
