Built with
institutional backing

RegulaBio is born out of innovation and bioeconomy funding programs, with backing from leading Brazilian public and research institutions.

Why RegulaBio exists

Brazil holds the largest biodiversity on the planet. Yet the legislation regulating access to this heritage is so complex that many companies give up on innovating — or operate without knowing they are at risk.

RegulaBio was born to change that. We combine legal expertise with technology to make biodiversity compliance accessible and actionable.
