Rainbow Crops
AI-driven multiplex genome editing
Rainbow Crops combines high-throughput phenotyping with predictive modelling, enabling breeders to more rapidly and accurately select elite plant varieties. Its ‘Trait Foundry’ platform allows for the simultaneous improvement of multiple plant traits by generating and screening rationally designed genetic diversity through an AI-driven system.
Through strategic collaborations with seed companies and non-profit organisations, Rainbow Crops aims to ensure these innovations deliver tangible impact for farmers, consumers, and the environment.
Tackling climate challenges in agriculture
Rainbow Crops primarily focus on crops that are of strategic importance for food security and sustainability within Europe. The emphasis lies on improving key agronomic traits, including drought tolerance, heat resistance, and input efficiency—traits that are becoming increasingly essential in the face of climate change and that are traditionally difficult to enhance through conventional breeding methods.
