Historical price data
Overview
EvoNext Holdings SA represents the corporate remnant of Evolva Holding SA, a once-prominent Swiss synthetic biology company founded in 2004. Evolva's original mission was to engineer yeast strains via precision fermentation to produce sustainable, high-value ingredients for health, nutrition, and flavors. After years of development and commercialization of products like resveratrol, the company faced severe financial distress, leading to the 2023 sale of its operating assets to Danstar Ferment AG (Lallemand Inc.) and subsequent delisting. EvoNext's current strategy is limited to managing the remaining corporate entity and any potential future earn-out payments from the asset sale.
Technology Platform
Historically based on synthetic biology and precision fermentation to engineer yeast strains for the production of high-value ingredients. The platform is no longer active following the sale of all operating assets.
