Our Portfolio
Breakout Labs has been supporting scientists and entrepreneurs working at the intersection of technology and biology for the last decade. Our portfolio of 50 deep science companies has raised over $1B in follow-on funding, grown leather without the cow, developed therapeutics to alter the course of Alzheimer’s, transformed industrial carbon dioxide emissions into useful products, and so much more.
Breakout Labs is not funding new companies, but the team behind Labs isn’t done yet. We launched Breakout Ventures to continue to invest in entrepreneurs building a future powered by science.
