About NANO Holdings
NANO Holdings is a listed holding company, formerly NanoCarrier, that has shifted from in-house drug development to an investment and business-development platform. It identifies Japanese healthcare and biotech technologies that are not yet fully valued, invests in them, scales them to global standards and works toward exits.
The group operates through several subsidiaries: NANO MRNA, a drug-discovery platform company working on nucleic acid and mRNA medicines; Nano Bridge Investment, which invests in Japanese bio and healthcare companies; NANO MEDIA, which produces IR and communication content for group and outside companies; and Nano Holdings US, which links Japanese assets with US investors and growth capital. Portfolio companies include NATiAS, a long-strand nucleic acid synthesis company.
