We Focus on Global Food Security
and Sustainability

Our Vision:

To offer advanced bioscience solutions that contribute in meaningful, sustainable ways – such as global food security – by leveraging the powerful traits found in nature.

Our Mission:

GeneNeer will leverage its advanced gene-editing platform to facilitate the safe, accurate, rapid and affordable development of crop seeds possessing enhanced genetic traits, including latent traits that may be activated on-demand via induction, to optimize such benefits as crop growth, yield and nutritional value.

Blazing New Trails

Dr. Kinneret Shefer – a Fulbright scholar, RNA researcher and entrepreneur – channeled her scientific work in RNA molecular structure and function into the development of enhanced crops. Her work evolved into an innovative and ground-breaking platform capable of simplifying and embellishing the process and safety of gene editing.

She teamed with Prof. Oded Shoseyov, Professor at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem’s Robert H. Smith Faculty of Agriculture, Food and Environment, an expert in nanobiotechnology, and a serial entrepreneur in agritech. Together, they co-founded GeneNeer.

Captivating the AgriTech Industry

In 2022, the Company completed numerous PoCs (proofs of concept) and embarked upon others, based upon its breakthrough, IP-protected Superlines™. GeneNeer has already signed several joint development agreements, leveraging its technology for use in diverse applications in several crops. The Company’s technology was chosen as a FoodTech Challenger Top-10 AgriTech finalist and was invited to join the StartLife À la Carte program for promising FoodTech and AgriTech start-ups.
Dr. Shefer has been interviewed by the media and presented internationally on the Company’s ground-breaking technology.

Garnering Support

Based upon the company’s preliminary successes, GeneNeer secured pre-seed funding of $1.4 million from 2b AHEAD Ventures, as well as four private investors. The Company is currently in the process of expanding its research team, partnerships and research activities.

Pursuing Gender Equality

In a world where less than one-fifth of AgriTech companies are founded by women, and the percentage of funding invested in female-led companies is only in the single digits, GeneNeer is determined to partner with investors and companies whose vision is science- and business-based, not gender-based.
