Life Length — Seed (estimated) · €1.5M

Japan's Yamada Bee Company announced a €3M investment. €1.5M went directly into Life Length as equity, and €1.5M was committed to a joint venture (51% Life Length, 49% Yamada) with exclusive rights to sell Life Length's telomere measurement services in Japan. Before this, Fundación Botín's Mind the Gap programme had invested €500K up to 2012, but that was never announced as a dated round.
