SpliceBio  SpliceBio is firmly set on its course to develop treatments for several diseases for which until now no treatment exists.SpliceBio's platform technology, developed over 20 years in the Muir Lab at Princeton University, allows for efficient delivery of large genes with adeno-associated vectors (AAV). Genes are split into fragments to be then put back together to the full-length protein to be delivered. 
In early 2022, the company completed the largest ever series A financing in the Spanish biotech sector; an oversubscribed €50 million finance round co-led by UCB Ventures and existing shareholder Ysios Capital and the participation of new investors New Enterprise Associates, Gilde Healthcare, Novartis Venture Fund and existing backer Asabys Partners which seeded the company in 2020 with Ysios. This financing round validates SpliceBio's approach of exploiting protein splicing to develop next generation gene therapies. The company is addressing one of the key limitations of AAV, being their limited cargo capacity.
