It has been an exciting 6 years of accelerating to where we are today and we are fundraising to maintain our pole position in the recombinant Lactoferrin space. Here’s why I’m so excited about the work we’re doing and why this is a compelling opportunity: Huge Impact, Real Need 40% of the global population struggles with gut health, and 30% suffers from iron-related anemia. These aren’t just statistics—they’re people whose lives can be profoundly improved. The global market for gut health and sustainable nutrition is growing rapidly, and our lactoferrin is already making a difference. A Platform for Long-Term Innovation What we’ve built is more than a single product—it’s a scalable platform for a pipeline of sustainable, better-for-you ingredients. This positions us for ongoing innovation in a market hungry for solutions that are better for people and the planet. Momentum and Market Leadership While others are still working on development, we’ve moved ahead. We’re shipping products today, with a platform designed for scalability and efficiency. Any volumes that customers need, we just need a 3-month notice to deliver product. Investors often look for momentum, and TurtleTree is leading the way. The health and nutrition space is transforming, and we’re at the forefront. If you’re ready to invest in creating a healthier, more sustainable world—and see the value of being a first-mover in this space—I’d love to connect and explore how we can scale this vision together. Thank you Richard Collings and Axios for the wonderful feature! #TurtleTree #LF+

Thank you all for the congratulations! I wish announcing a fundraise meant the money just magically appeared, but alas, we’re still in the thick of it. If you know someone who wants to turn those congratulations into conversations, send them my way—we’ve got room at the table!
