The energy and determination of DEINOVE’s teams made it possible for me to take up my position under optimal conditions, despite the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Together we are fully committed to developing DEINOVE as a major player in the generation of new antimicrobials”, added Alexis RIDEAU, CEO of DEINOVE.ABOUT DEINOVEDEINOVE is a French biotechnology company pioneering the exploration of a new domain of life, unexplored at 99.9%: the “microbial dark matter”. By revealing the metabolic potential of rare bacteria or still classified as uncultivable, it tackles a global health and economic challenge: antimicrobial resistance. The new therapies discovered and developed by DEINOVE target superbugs (microbes that have become resistant to one or more antimicrobials) that cause life-threatening infections which are now spreading at high speed.This breakthrough approach gave birth to one of the World first specialized micro-biotechnology platforms and a unique collection of 10,000 rare strains and thousands of bacterial extracts. Nowadays, DEINOVE is conducting several development programs, of which its first antibiotic candidate is currently evaluated in a Phase II clinical trial in severe Clostridioides difficile infections, one of the World primary emergencies. The Company has also developed new bacterial micro-factories that address the other issue in the race against antimicrobial resistance: the industrial production of these rare and low concentrated compounds with often too complex chemical structures to be generated by chemical synthesis.
Based at the heart of the Euromédecine park in Montpellier, DEINOVE is listed on EURONEXT GROWTH® (ALDEI – code ISIN FR0010879056) since 2010. The Company has more than 50 employees and leans on a world class network of academic, technological, industrial and institutional partners.
