Corundum Systems Biology Inc., a group company of Corundum Innovation Co., Ltd., participated in the Series A financing round that successfully raised USD23 million for Concerto Biosciences, a US biotechnology company making discoveries in microbial combinations to treat disease. Concerto will use the funds to advance product development based on designing microbial communities that restore deficient microbiomes. It will also expand its pipeline for products in medicine and agriculture. As an initial step, it will allocate funds for clinical studies for “Ensemble No. 2,” Concerto’s first microbial product, which aims to correct the microbial deficiency underlying atopic dermatitis.
