"We are pleased to have such strong support from Redmile Group and Sofinnova Partners, two landmark investors in biotech, who recognize our potential to build a new type of biotech company, out of European science," said David Schilansky and Magali Richard, co-founders of Home-Biosciences. “Our ambition is to build a fully-fledged biotech company with an asset-centric operational model that aims to increase agility and R&D productivity.

Proceeds from the financing will be used to accelerate the development of Home Biosciences’ pipeline while further strengthening its team. Specifically, the round will allow the company to advance its first venture, One Biosciences, as well as build a second one and a strong pipeline of projects. One Biosciences is focused on generating precision medicines by leveraging the power of single-cell technologies.
“Home Biosciences is pioneering an innovative model that fills an important gap in the European biotech ecosystem," said Antoine Papiernik, Managing Partner at Sofinnova Partners. “We are delighted to join forces with Redmile Group in supporting Europe’s first biotech venture builder in its mission to provide financial support and operational guidance, to create the groundbreaking therapies of the future.”
In connection with the Seed round, Ming Fang, a Managing Director of Redmile Group, and Antoine Papiernik, Managing Partner at Sofinnova Partners, will serve on the Board of Directors. They will join David Schilansky and Magali Richard, co-founders of Home Biosciences. An independent member of the Board is expected to be appointed in the near future.
