Company Overview
Oleo is a biotechnology company that has developed a process to create a sustainable, low-carbon alternative to palm oil. The company, also known as Oleo Sustainable Palm Oil Solutions (SPOS), transforms lignocellulosic waste into a second-generation bio-oil that can serve as a drop-in replacement for palm oil in the consumer goods and biofuels sectors. The proprietary method involves a two-step process: first, using microwave hydrolysis to release fermentable sugars from biomass, and second, fermenting oleaginous yeast to produce lipids with a fatty acid profile similar to conventional palm oil. Founded by Stanford University graduates Gabriella Dweck and Kelly Redmond, the venture aims to reduce deforestation and greenhouse gas emissions associated with traditional palm oil production. The company is part of the Activate and Cyclotron Road accelerator programs.
