In an exciting move towards bolstering sustainable agriculture, iyris has announced the successful raising of $16 million in funding, earmarked for driving its mission of feeding the world sustainably through technology. Co-founded by renowned experts Professor Derya Baran, Dr. Ryan Lefers, and Professor Mark Tester, iyris is at the forefront of tackling global food security challenges while minimizing environmental impacts. The funds will primarily support the development and marketing of their flagship product, SecondSky—a revolutionary line of transparent greenhouse covers embedded with patented near-infrared radiation-blocking nanocomposites. By enhancing temperature control and energy efficiency in greenhouses, SecondSky aims to increase crop yields while reducing resource consumption. Additionally, this funding will fuel innovation at iyris Labs, the company’s research and development hub, where a dedicated team is continually exploring and refining groundbreaking agricultural technologies. With this newfound capital, iyris is not just focused on transforming the agricultural landscape but is also committed to promoting a more sustainable and food-secure future for all communities around the globe. As we navigate a world with shifting climate patterns and growing populations, iyris stands ready to meet these challenges head-on, ensuring that technology plays a pivotal role in addressing them. We are excited to see how this funding will accelerate our efforts and contribute to a more resilient agricultural ecosystem for generations to come.
