Anima, the biomimicry studio

Anima is a venture studio for biomimicry. We partner with researchers, designers, engineers and entrepreneurs to turn breakthrough ideas into market-ready ventures with real-world impact. We don’t consult, we co-build. From science to product, from prototype to funding, we roll up our sleeves and get ventures off the ground. Whether it's co-founding with researchers or accelerating startups, we bring strategy, finance, business, marketing and execution under one roof. Our team brings decades of experience in deeptech entrepreneurship, impact, biomimicry, AI, and business. Around each venture, we activate a global network of talent, investors and partners to go faster and further. We’ve co-founded ventures like Asteria, an AI-powered biomimicry tool helping industrial leaders design better with nature. Let’s build what nature would. Out of the Lab Award - Applications open until July 31st. You are a researcher, project owners, or very early-stage (pre-seed) startup working on a bioinspired project with the entrepreneurial ambition to transition from lab to market? Apply! The winner will get €50,000 prizes (cash and support) > https://shorturl.at/cVHb4
