Company profile
researched Aug 2026Logomix, Inc. is a Tokyo-based mammalian synthetic biology company developing artificial human cells for new therapeutics using its Geno-Writing genome engineering platform. The platform is designed to write large-scale and complex sequences into the human genome, enabling megabase-scale genomic modification within human cells rather than point edits.
The company applies the platform to create versions of engineered human cells intended for drug discovery, cell therapy, regenerative medicine and anti-aging applications. It positions the technology as an enabler for therapy developers seeking to write therapeutic sequences for new modalities addressing cancer, neurodegenerative diseases and genetic diseases, and states the intention to pursue discovery collaborations with biopharma companies. Logomix is listed under the Medical Engineering & Biotechnology category of Japan's J-Startup program.
Business model
Logomix develops a proprietary genome engineering platform and states it intends to validate and apply the technology through partnerships and discovery collaborations with biotech and pharmaceutical companies, alongside developing its own portfolio of engineered human cells.
Latest developments
In February 2023 Logomix announced an oversubscribed $3.9 million seed round led by Angel Bridge, with proceeds directed toward building out the Geno-Writing platform, validating the technology through biotech and pharma partnerships, and establishing US-based automation capabilities for cell engineering.
