Proceeds Purpose
Apolarion will use the CHF 150,000 grant from Venture Kick to advance the development and commercialisation of its chemical-free, plasma-based seed treatment technology. The funding will support the company's first series of field trials and initial customer deployments by covering operational facilities, specialised equipment and personnel required to conduct pilot programmes. These activities will help validate the technology under real-world agricultural conditions, demonstrate its effectiveness in eliminating harmful seed pathogens while preserving germination, establish relationships with early customers, and prepare the company for its initial market entry in Switzerland and other European markets.
