If you're curious to know how biomanufacturing and AI can amplify reforestation impact and address the global seed deficit, check our feature in Forbes by John Werner. Restoration is key to maintaining global forest cover and biodiversity, but today, a lack of appropriate seed renders most planting efforts ineffective. Our team is excited to be advancing bio-powered technologies that can scale to protect and restore forest resources. https://lnkd.in/efHGSvKv #Biomanufacturing #ClimateResilience #Reforestation #ForayBioscience #Seed #AI

We’re pleased to welcome Matthew Aghai to Foray’s Board of Directors. Matthew is a reforestation thought leader and builder, with nearly two decades of hands-on experience in applied forestry research, tree seed production, and public-private reforestation. Matthew was the former Chief Science Officer at Mast Reforestation and is now the Managing Partner of Viridian Ecosystems. Supported by Matthew’s experiential insights, we’re excited to deliver transformative technologies for scalable and resilient restoration. If you’re solving for planting strategy, seed access, tree die-off, or biobanking, we’d love to hear from you.

We are thrilled to announce the close of our $3M Seed raise led by ReGen Ventures with participation from Engine Ventures, Susquehanna Sustainable Investments, Understorey, Superorganism, and other incredible partners. Plants play a crucial role in our day-to-day lives, but today nearly 40% of assessed plant species are under threat of extinction. This reality strains our ecosystems, impacts climate stability, and threatens the availability of plant-based goods. New technologies are needed to ensure the survival of these natural resources and the access to plant products we depend upon.
