What more could you ask for? Botanitec(Botanitec) was founded in late 2018 by chemical engineer Daniela Vaisman and this year is hitting the market with a plant-based antioxidant and radical growth promoter for the agricultural and household sector. These are biostimulant products developed from plant waste that are used to improve field yields. The antioxidant is used to decrease plant oxidative stress and promote photosynthesis, impacting plant and fruit growth and quality, while minimizing the effect of stress. Root growth promoter is an organic and natural product, rich in antioxidants, which improves plant quality in terms of physiology and allows for greater root development and more efficient nutrient assimilation.

Botanitec has received support from Corfo and has set up a factory in Cartagena. It is in talks with agricultural product distributors and angel investors to boost the company's growth.
