Ourobio is a biotechnology company that uses industrial byproducts to produce low-footprint, bio-based chemicals and materials through proprietary bioprocesses. Their first product turns dairy waste into biodegradable plastic colorant masterbatches. They have bootstrapped R&D to produce polymers and colorants from whey and have secured MOUs from potential partners. They are seeking pre-seed funding and corporate partners to further develop their technology and portfolio of bio-based and biodegradable products.
3. 3
We want to be the chemical
and materials industrys
bioeconomy partner.
Our unique biotechnology uses industrial
byproducts to produce low-footprint,
targeted additives for the chemicals &
materials industry.
Our bioprocesses help create supply
chains that are circular and regenerative.

5. Traction and achievements
Bootstrapped R&D to
TRL 3/4 - producing
polymers & colorant
from whey with our
engineered strain.
1000+ hours of
market discovery
yielded MOUs
from up and down
stream partners.
Patent pending
technology with
patent family &
follow-on IP
strategy.
We have made signi鍖cant progress
since pivoting last year.
6. 6
Weve got many other accomplishments
that show for it too.
$400k bootstrapped, including EPA SBIR and a number of
competitions/awards
$200k raised from the Heritage Ventures Group and on RoundHere
(where we are hosting our F&F / pre-seed extension)
15+ successful intern & consulting engagements
3+ year-long relationships with VCs and prospective partners
