About Biomemory Digital data is exploding, yet only 30% of it is stored durably, and data centers already consume around 2% of the world's electricity. Biomemory is the global pioneer in DNA data storage. We develop an IT-friendly DNA data storage and cybersecurity solution for data centers: an interoperable, modular architecture and a biosecure DNA medium to write, store and read data. Founded in 2021 and headquartered in Paris, Biomemory raised a €17M Series A in early 2025, led by Crédit Mutuel Innovation with Bpifrance and Blast. A French Tech 2030 laureate, the company has acquired a US competitor and operates a site in Boston. Join us in redefining the future of data storage. 🧬💾
