Nanofibre scaffolds for effective regeneration

This startup is initially targeting the dental membrane and bone graft substitutes market, valued at approximately USD$1.47 billion in 2024 and projected to reach USD$2.96 billion by 2033.

Tissue and bone have limited capacity to regenerate once damaged and current regenerative solutions are predominantly:

  • synthetic
  • costly to develop
  • structurally dissimilar to the body’s natural healing environment.

This leaves a significant gap in guided tissue and bone regeneration across dental, orthopaedic and reconstructive applications.

MimicMatrix develops biodegradable nanofibre scaffolds engineered from natural polymers to replicate the architecture of the extracellular matrix, providing cells with the structural template required for effective regeneration.

A proprietary machine learning layer accelerates material and process optimisation, substantially reducing development time and laboratory cost.
