Hyderabad: Startup Grasmicobe, which was into probiotics and was incubated at the IKP Knowledge Park in Genome Valley, would be setting up its centre at the land allotted by TSIIC in Karkapatla by August.
It would be providing employment to 100 people and produce probiotics, bacteria which provides health benefits when consumed. “We want to inject the probiotic into food like idly or dosa batter instead of direct consumption. We will be working with companies initially and eventually will expand to the dairy segment because the curd which is now available doesn’t contain the required of bacteria,” said an official.
About 27 startups working in the Life Sciences segment, including T-Hub incubated startup’s Leanspoon and IIIT-Hyderabad-incubated startup Imaginate showcased their products at the BioAsia conclave.
