Nanomnia: Delivery science is becoming the deciding factor for next‑generation biologicals

Italian start-up Nanomnia is focusing on plastic-free, biodegradable encapsulation technologies to enable the reliable delivery of fragile biological crop protection actives, such as peptides and dsRNA, outside controlled environments. Co-founder and CEO Marta Bonaconsa emphasizes that the real bottleneck for next-generation biologicals is not discovery, but ensuring stability and consistent field performance through advanced delivery systems. Nanomnia partners with developers and manufacturers upstream, aiming to license its platform technology at scale, and plans to accelerate its transition from R&D collaborations to wider commercialization through upcoming fundraising. The company sees delivery science as mission-critical for translating biological promise into commercially viable agricultural products.
