Nanomik Biotechnology is an innovative company at the forefront of biochemistry in the life sciences sector. Founded in 2014 and headquartered in Turkey, Nanomik develops microencapsulated biopesticides designed to combat food spoilage without compromising quality. The worldwide challenge they address is significant: up to 30% of fresh fruits and vegetables are wasted annually even before reaching consumers, incurring a substantial economic loss estimated above $1.3 billion.
Traditional preservation methods often use harmful chemicals whose adverse effects on health and the environment limit their usage. However, Nanomik’s technology offers a natural alternative, aiming to reduce food waste and support a healthier planet with less reliance on synthetic preservatives.
Recently, the company secured a $1.17M seed investment on July 1, 2025. Esteemed investors including Arya Women's Investment Platform, İTÜ ARI Teknokent, T3 Girişim Merkezi, Turkish Development Fund, and Ziraat Portföy participated, underscoring confidence in Nanomik's potential to revolutionize the Biotechnology, Life Sciences, and AgriTech industries.
