About us

What we do: BiocSol is a pioneering startup specializing in the development of innovative microbial-free biopesticides designed to empower farmers with efficient biocontrol solutions. The company creates reliable, cost-effective, and biodegradable biosolutions targeting major agricultural challenges such as mildew and blight in crops including potatoes, lettuces, grapes, and other vegetables. By harnessing specific microbial substances rather than live microbes, BiocSol offers sustainable crop protection that preserves soil health and biodiversity.

Where we are located: BiocSol is headquartered at Chem. du Cyclotron 6, 1348 Ottignies-Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium.

Short history: Founded in 2023 as a spin-off from Université catholique de Louvain (UCLouvain), BiocSol builds on over a decade of research at UCLouvain's Earth & Life Institute, particularly in plant health and microbiology. The company has secured significant seed funding (€5.2 million) to expand its team, advance R&D, and initiate regulatory processes for its biofungicide products in Europe and North America.

Organization & culture: BiocSol is a growing startup backed by strong academic and investor support. The team includes experts in microbiology and crop protection, led by founder and CTO Simon Caulier and CEO Denis Payen. The company values innovation, sustainability, and practical solutions to reduce chemical pesticide use and support resilient agriculture.

Recent developments: In 2024, BiocSol secured €5.2 million in seed funding led by Agri Investment Fund and VIVES Partners, enabling the company to scale up its technology and begin regulatory approval processes. Field trials for its first biofungicide products have been conducted in multiple countries, demonstrating promising results for sustainable crop protection.
