🌟 Kicking off 2025 with amazing news! 🌟
We’re thrilled to announce the successful closing of our €800k pre-seed round! 🎉 This funding accelerates the development of ReceptomiX, our nature-inspired technology that rapidly and objectively measures the bioactivity of molecules — unlocking insights into taste properties and health effects.

Inspired by nature, ReceptomiX mimics insect antennae and uses human DNA to analyze how molecules are perceived, bridging the gap between innovation and human biology. This funding brings us closer to market introduction, strengthens our team, and enables further technological advancements.

We’re equally excited about the expansion of our team:
👋 Steven Alexander joined as Chief Business Officer in 2024, bringing deep expertise from the food and beverage industry to drive growth and partnerships.
🎉 Dr. Margriet Roelse has just joined us as Chief Scientific Officer, and we’re confident her expertise will elevate our scientific development to new levels.

We’re deeply grateful to our investors (Capricorn Partners & Oost NL) and supporters who believe in our mission to revolutionize taste measurements. Stay tuned as we prepare for an exciting year ahead! 🚀
