Grove Biopharma
Private Company
Total funding raised: $25M
Overview
Grove Biopharma is a private, pre-clinical-stage biotech developing a breakthrough platform for intracellular drug delivery. Its core technology, Bionic Biologics™, uses precision polymerization to create synthetic, cell-permeable polymers that can engage challenging intracellular protein-protein interaction targets. The company has demonstrated proof-of-concept across several high-value targets, including MYC and KRAS, and is backed by a $30 million Series A financing to advance its pipeline in oncology, neurodegenerative diseases, and rare disorders.
Technology Platform
Bionic Biologics™: A target-agnostic platform using precision polymerization to create synthetic, cell-permeable, protein-like polymers from peptide inputs. These modular molecules are designed to disrupt or degrade intracellular protein-protein interactions (PPIs) and can be configured as monofunctional disruptors or bispecific degraders.
