Support from Toulouse Team – Invest

Toulouse Team – Invest supported Lantana Bio from the very early stages of its establishment. The team facilitated access to local scientific networks, supported efforts to engage with specialist partners, and helped the company identify infrastructure suited to its prototyping phases.

This targeted networking enabled Lantana Bio to consolidate its project and quickly integrate into the regional foodtech and bioeconomy dynamics.
