Deal Ticker: Kellerhals Carrard advised Timeline on their recent financing round with l’Oréal, Nestlé and other important investors

Huge congratulations to Timeline (parent company Amazentis SA) for the recent financing round, which crowns more than a decade of gold standard scientific research and hard work.

Longevity specialist Timeline just raised 56 million Swiss francs from L’Oréal, Nestlé and several other important investors. This French-speaking start-up was founded by Patrick Aebischer, Chris Rinsch, André Hoffmann and Pierre Landolt in 2007 as a spin-off of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL) to develop innovative solu-tions for longevity in the food, beauty and health sectors. Its investors include Nestlé, an established partner since several years, as well as L'Oréal, via its BOLD strategic fund for innovation. The investment of the French group shows the growing interest of the beauty industry in as-pects of health and longevity. It will also enable Timeline to further develop its unique technology, scale its brand and expand operations.

Supporting Amazentis since a number of years, Kellerhals Carrard advised on the Swiss contractual aspects of this round and collaborated with Cooley LLP for the US side.

The Kellerhals Carrard team was led by Jean-Luc Chenaux (Partner), and further comprised Edgar Philippin (Partner) as well as Cindy Liu and Joséphine Marmy (Senior Associates).

We wish Timeline all the best for your future endeavors and are very happy to accompany you on this way!
