The company identifies and develops microbial technologies that deliver significant pest reduction without harming beneficial insects, addressing the fact that 30-40% of global crop losses are caused by pests and diseases. Founded by Dr Alicia Showering and Christopher Mosedale, BugBiome's approach uses the natural biology of insects to find sustainable biopesticide solutions, offering farmers effective risk mitigation. The company started in Cambridge and has received investment from Rockstart.
