InsectiGen has been supported in its early stages by the GRA through its Venture Lab and Innovation Fund programs. “This is an exciting outcome for InsectiGen that will help Georgia growers and citizens,” said GRA President and CEO Mike Cassidy. “Recruiting the right talent and using a strong network of support to transform a discovery into a commercial product is what GRA is all about.” Both UGA and GRA provided laboratory equipment, a willing supply of researchers and graduate students, grant funding and facilities for the company during the development of the BtBooster technology. “InsectiGen is an exciting new Georgia agbio company, with superb scientific leadership from Cliff Baile and Mike Adang”, said John Richard, managing director of Georgia Venture Partners.
