Accelerating Biological Innovation, Ethically
Microbe Valley connects students, scientists, and industry with the invisible world of microbes.
Through our curated Epolleo database, citizen scientist and student-driven sampling campaigns, and an integrated Technology Transfer Office, we’re building a collaborative AI-optimized model for open biological innovation in microbial diversity. Our Biodiversity Credit Portal provides a sustainable funding pathway within the nonprofit ecosystem—ensuring global access, equity, and long-term conservation.
Microbe Valley is a nonprofit ecosystem centered around biological innovation, designed to assist researchers, startups, and institutions in streamlining discovery and accelerating microbial product development.
Our Epolleo database exclusively sources naturally occurring, non-GMO, CRISPR-free microbial samples collected through preservation and education-driven campaigns, showcasing the rich microbial diversity available. With robust environmental metadata and second-tier screening pathways through university partners, Microbe Valley enables low-capex access to high-impact microbial assets.
Let our Technology Transfer Office and curated network of grant-funded academic labs help reduce your overhead while bringing new solutions to market faster.

Reduce R&D costs and timelines with our curated strain-to-product pipeline.
Epolleo’s TTO supports product development by bridging discovery and deployment.
We match identified strains to your pipeline needs, and coordinate secondary screenings through university labs with grant-funded infrastructure expansion.
Our model offers:
Licensing-ready strains and derivatives
Collaborative joint IP development
Sample-specific screening campaigns
Royalty and revenue-sharing models for sustainable reinvestment
By eliminating high-capex discovery stages and offering ethically sourced biodiversity, we de-risk early-stage innovation and reduce time to market.
Scalable STEM education that feeds a global innovation pipeline.
Collections in the Classroom equips students to contribute directly to the scientific frontier.
Through guided campaigns, classrooms collect and document microbial samples with full environmental context. These real-world collections feed the Epolleo database, where they may become the source of the next bio-based innovation.
Backed by our LMS and NGSS-aligned curriculum, this program merges education, conservation, and commercialization in one loop.
Advance Discovery. Reduce Costs. Build the Future.
Microbe Valley’s partner network encompasses academia, biotech, education, and public finance, all working towards advancing biological innovation. Whether you're building a product, exploring microbial diversity through intellectual property, or sponsoring biodiversity innovation, we provide flexible, transparent, and mission-driven entry points.
Let our campaign-ready samples, low-cost screening partners, and integrated TTO support you in:
