Alchemy Cloud provides Chemistry Acceleration Software
Founding Year: 2017
Location: San Francisco, US
Partner for: Chemical Lab Management
US-based startup Alchemy provides cloud-based software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions to modernize specialty chemical development. Its digital business software empowers labs to develop new industrial chemicals faster. Moreover, the startup’s laboratory information management system (LIMS) automatically integrates lab equipment, notebook, and other systems data. This improves lab performance as well as reduces manual data entry and non-compliance while enabling cost-efficient specialty chemicals.
ClearShift converts CO2 into Specialty Chemicals
Founding Year: 2017
Location: Dallas, US
Partner for: Sustainable Chemical Production
US-based startup ClearShift transforms major pollution sources, such as flare gas, methane, and industrial carbon dioxide, into ultra-pure, environmentally friendly products. The startup’s conversion process consumes less water and energy per gallon than legacy oil-based chemicals. Moreover, its specialty chemicals do not contain sulfur, tar, or other heavy metals. They also produce minimal aromatics while maintaining product purity, also enabling oil, gas, and energy industries to reduce emissions.
Abintio Biosciences offers Custom Molecule Synthesis
Founding Year: 2017
Location: Hyderabad, India
Partner for: Contract Research & Manufacturing
Abintio Biosciences is an Indian startup that provides custom research and manufacturing services for the pharmaceutical industry. The startup creates a customized synthesis of molecules in all structural classes, design, synthesis of reference standards, and specific impurities.

Mosspiration Biotech creates Natural Fragrance from Moss
Founding Year: 2016
Location: Horsholm, Denmark
Partner for: Molecular Engineering
Danish startup Mosspiration Biotech uses moss as a green cell factory to produce natural fragrance products. The startup’s moss transformation technology is a direct assembly of multiple linear deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) fragments via homologous recombination. This in-vivo assembly is applied to assemble DNA constructs ranging in size from a few kilobases to full synthetic microbial genomes. As a result, the startup is able to use physcomitrella moss to sustainably create fine chemicals, reducing the exploitation of rare and endangered plants.
Redbrick Molecular advances Synthetic Organic Chemistry
Founding Year: 2017
Location: Sheffield, UK
Partner for: Novel Boronates & Sydnones
Redblock Molecular is a UK-based startup that manufactures novel building block chemicals and organic fragments. The startup produces building blocks that are synthesized based on the most recent chemistry invented by its academic partners. Additionally, they are available in scales ranging from 10 milligrams to multi-gram scale and also undertake custom synthesis. Redblock Molecular’s exclusivity options introduce customers to academic inventors while offering to support collaborative research. This enables its clients to create specialty chemical compositions not publicly available in the market.
