About us

At Loopworm, we are building the future of sustainable biomanufacturing. Our proprietary LoopBac Protein Expression System produces recombinant proteins with up to 60× higher yields than conventional cell culture platforms. These innovations unlock affordable production of antigens, antibodies, VLPs, kinases and other recombinant proteins, with applications across life sciences, diagnostics, cosmetics and animal health. Alongside this breakthrough platform, Loopworm also operates a 6,000 TPA animal nutrition facility near Bengaluru, producing sustainable proteins and oils for the pet food and aquaculture industries. The facility is ISO22000, GMP+, HACCP, EU Traces, and Coastal Aquaculture Authorities approved and the company has an experience in shipping their products to over 20 countries globally. Loopworm has been honoured with the Action for India – Best Social Enterprise Award (2020) and the Aegis Graham Bell Award for Agritech Innovation (2025), reflecting their pioneering approach to Agri-biotech innovation. Founded in 2019 by IIT Roorkee alumni Ankit Alok Bagaria and Abhi Gawri, Loopworm is led by entrepreneurs recognized among the Forbes 30 Under 30 (India & Asia) and Entrepreneur India 40 Under 40. Backed by government grants from Department of Biotechnology, Startup Karnataka, and Ministry of Agriculture & Farmer’s welfare, the founders have transformed Loopworm from an idea into India’s first insect-based biotech platform with global ambitions in recombinant proteins.
