Kapsera develops a patented microfluidics encapsulation process that produces alginate capsules (100–500 µm) with a liquid core and a thin, semi-porous shell to protect live microorganisms and allow gas and nutrient exchange. The capsules are biosourced, biodegradable, compatible with standard farming equipment, and already approved for agricultural use. The company’s technology targets improved stability and field performance of biofertilizers and biopesticides to help bridge sustainability and productivity for farmers. Kapsera plans to scale up its process and complete product development using the newly secured funding. Management highlights a solid IP position, an experienced team and board, and rapid progress—reaching a first key milestone after one year of operations.
