Milltrust is excited to share that our portfolio company, Green Bioactives Limited (GBL), has achieved significant milestones.

Breakthrough Memory Supplement:
GBL has announced promising clinical results for GBL-Memory 1, their new memory-enhancing supplement, now available in the UK and Germany. A study in Food Science and Nutrition revealed that GBL-Memory 1, featuring L-theanine and Fructooligosaccharides (FOS), can improve memory by 10.1%. The supplement, marketed as Memocentrix, has received positive feedback for boosting cognitive performance and brain health.

Major Grant for Sustainable Biomanufacturing:
GBL has also secured a £224,000 grant from Innovate UK in collaboration with the University of Edinburgh. This grant will support the development of a sustainable biomanufacturing platform for producing high-value plant metabolites for the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and agricultural industries. CEO Dr. David McElroy highlighted the grant’s importance in advancing research and enhancing production efficiency.

Green Bioactives, founded in 2019 and based in Edinburgh, is a leader in sustainable biomanufacturing, utilising advanced biotechnology to produce plant-based products. Their plant cell culture platform ensures reliable access to valuable bioactives and promotes sustainable ingredient production.
