About
GreenBone SpA – Strategic Pitch
1. Business & Product Overview: b.Bone®
Mission: GreenBone advances post-trauma bone reconstruction using bioactive, biomimetic synthetic substitutes from natural plant sources.
• Patented Transformation: A sinter-free process transforms rattan wood into a bone-like nanocrystalline structure (hydroxyapatite and beta-tricalcium phosphate with strontium and magnesium ions).
• Key Properties:
o Bioactive: High osteoconductive and osteoinductive capabilities.
o Biomimetic: Replicates osteonic canals; fully resorbs within 6–24 months.
o Customizable: Intraoperatively drillable, shapeable, and screwable without brittle failure.
2. Clinical Validation & Results
b.Bone® has transitioned from R&D to a market-proven solution with high efficacy:
• Global Footprint: Adopted across 40+ Clinical Centers for active data collection.
• Track Record: 750+ successful real-world cases with zero adverse device events.
• Scientific Backing: Validated by 22 peer-reviewed publications.
Product Portfolio & Indications
• Wedges & Blocks: Standardized shapes for extremities and pelvis.
• Cylinders: Designed for severe trauma and extensive long-bone defects.
• Granules: Versatile filling for irregular voids and bone cavities.
• Performance: Hierarchical porosity stimulates vascularization and remodeling while enabling structural intraoperative fixation (drilling/screwing).
3. Regulatory Milestones & Intellectual Property
• MDR Certification: EU MDR 2017/745 achieved in 2024 for Extremities, Long Bones, and Pelvis; Spine indication targeted for Summer 2026.
• US Market (FDA): 510(k) pre-submission underway; clearance targeted for Q4 2027 / Q1 2028.
• Intellectual Property: 3 core patent families (licensed from ISTEC-CNR) covering rattan transformation into nanostructured hydroxyapatite in EU, USA, China, and Japan.
• Manufacturing: Dedicated Brescia plant (formerly Medtronic) with scalable capacity up to 50,000 units/year.
4. Executive Leadership
• Saverio Gellini (CEO): 35+ years of global corporate turnaround leadership.
• Dr. Anna Tampieri (Scientific Lead / Inventor): Bioceramics pioneer at ISTEC-CNR; technology inventor.
• Andrea Cha (COO): 22 years of medical device leadership (ex-Medtronic).
• Paolo Sala (CFO): Expert in financial management and exit strategy execution.
5. Financing Strategy: Series C Opportunity
• Round Structure: Target Ask of €200,000,000 (€12,700,000 already committed).
• Investors: Backed by CDP Venture Capital, Origine, 3B Future Health, and Meta Ventures.
• Use of Funds: Advanced clinical trials, FDA 510(k) clearances (Extremities & Spine), and EU commercial expansion.
• Strategic Exit: Target liquidity event planned by 2029.
