Pavle Jeremic, who has a bachelor's in biomolecular engineering from UC Santa Cruz, founded Aether Biomachines in July 2017 at the age of 21. He built a platform that runs trillions of completely automated experiments. Jeremic says its speed, accuracy and scalability mean aether's platform can reimagine biological manufacturing by repurposing enzymes to create entirely new compounds and dramatically lower the cost of existing compounds. With $11.5 million in seed funding, Aether expects revenue to reach at least $2 million next year.
