Biorsaf, a Tuscan startup specialising in technological solutions for food safety management, announces that it has closed a EUR 1.4 million investment round led by Maia Ventures and Farming Future, the National Agrifoodtech Technology Transfer Pole promoted by CDP Venture Capital in collaboration with ToSeed & Partners. Also participating in the operation is the Toscana Next Fund, set up to support innovation in the region.
Founded by a team with decades of experience in security (pictured), Biorsaf has developed a platform that simplifies and digitises control protocols (such as HACCP), eliminating paper-based management and facilitating real-time traceability. The system integrates advanced functionalities to record and archive data, reducing operational costs and risks of non-compliance.
‘This investment will allow us to accelerate our technological development and expand our range of action,’ Biorsaf CEO Marco Papalini said in a note. ‘We want to provide companies in the agri-food sector with digital tools to improve efficiency and sustainability, responding to the needs of a market that is increasingly focused on food safety.
The round will allow Biorsaf to further strengthen the platform, expand the team and develop new solutions, with a focus on the exploitation of technologies such as generative artificial intelligence with the aim of consolidating its presence in Italy and looking at international markets sensitive to the digitisation of food security.
‘The investment in Biorsaf is a clear sign of how innovation can make the agri-food sector safer and more sustainable,’ says Claudia Pingue, senior partner at CDP Venture Capital and head of the Technology Transfer Fund. ‘We strongly support solutions that respond to global challenges, and food security is certainly one of them.
