WHY IT MATTERS
BigHat says its autonomous AI-and-experimental platform generates gold-standard biological data at scale and has advanced BHB810, its first AI-designed therapeutic, into a Phase 1 trial with the first patient dosed. The $75 million Series C brings total funding to $223 million and is intended to advance BHB810 and BHB299 while scaling the platform, betting that faster, data-rich protein design can produce more developable medicines for patients.
BigHat Biosciences sells AI-driven protein therapeutics primarily focused on antibody design and engineering, targeted at healthcare providers and researchers in the biotech sector.
