UV Boosting has completed a Series A venture funding round led by Kubota Group
UV Boosting, a specialist in sustainable and innovative UV light solutions that stimulate the crop defense mechanisms of trees, plants and crops against pathogens and environmental stresses, has completed a Series A venture funding round led by Kubota Group. This investment allows Kubota to expand its portfolio of alternative crop protection solutions, advancing its innovation strategy and creating new technology and business opportunities.
Founded in 2017 in France within the Technofounders startup studio, UV Boosting offers UV-C light panel implements that provide an environmentally friendly solution to protect growers’ crops. These implements help reduce fungal pressure, limit yield losses from disease and mitigate the impact of other stresses such as drought and frost, all in a clean, residue-free manner. The Helios implements are designed to be easily mounted on standard (narrow) tractors and straddle tractors for use in vineyards. UV Boosting has also developed equipment for turf and strawberry growers, and continues to expand its product range to support additional crops. The company develops, manufactures and sells these implements through its own distribution network, with plans to increase sales through distribution channels in the coming years.
Oaklins’ team in France advised the shareholders of UV Boosting in this Series A venture funding round led by Kubota Group.
