Advancing nutrition for infants
At UPLI, we’re transforming infant nutrition by creating bioactive proteins found in human breast milk using cutting-edge biotechnology.
Our mission is to uplift every infant’s health by bringing formulas closer to nature.
The future of breast milk proteins
Our technology replicates key breast milk proteins using precision fermentation, to create high-quality ingredients designed to support early-life nutrition.
These bioactive proteins, essential for growth, immunity, and cognitive development, are scientifically documented to enhance infant health and development.
Who we are
We are experts in nutritional health, and engineering making key health-boosting nutrients available for early-life nutrition.
