About Formo

At Formo, we're rebuilding dairy to help create a just and resilient food system. Using precision fermentation, we produce real, bio-identical milk proteins, starting with casein.

We are a B2B platform: we make the proteins, and food manufacturers build the next generation of dairy products on top of them. Our work sits at the intersection of molecular biology, food science, and industrial innovation, and our job in the market is to make a deep-tech ingredient legible and compelling to the formulators, brands, and technical buyers who will use it.

Formo is a venture-backed, fast-growing company with an international team of highly skilled entrepreneurs, scientists, and operators. United by a passion for challenging the status quo, we're building the future of food.
