GENESIS
Ninapharm Laboratory was founded in 1993 in Annecy, an alpine city surrounded by Evian spring water and Mont Blanc. Annecy is famous for having the most pure lake in Europe and for its high-tech industries.
From its start, the company focused on nanotechnology applications for health solutions, from which the name Nutraceutical Innovation Nano Actives.
The first application of the technology was applied on liver fibrosis by stabilizing the antioxidant Super Oxide Dismutase (SOD) enzymes in a nano matrix, originally discovered by Pr J. McCord and brought to light at the SOD 2000 Institute Pasteur conference by Dr. M. EDEAS where Ninapharm introduced its first generation SOD formula.
From 2001, Ninapharm focused on bringing advanced health formulas for alpinists living in the Alpes and became famous among the Swiss longevity clinics for its anti-aging nutraceuticals, constantly evolving while remaining true to its pioneering DNA. Guided by its motto “Formulated for alpinists, empowering pioneers,” we also began developing alpinist health supplements that support endurance, stress control, and recovery.
Born in extreme conditions of the Alps and collaborating with exigent mountaineers with zero error mindset, where energy and consistency determine the outcome is what forged the spirit of Ninapharm. This alpine-driven culture influences our approach to performance recovery solutions and supports our broader vision to help people live to 100 years.
As described by the Mayor of Annecy, Jean Lucy Rigaut, and world champion:
“Ninapharm est une société d'excellence, d’exigence et de relation humaine.”
Spirit of pioneering new sciences like the microbiome, and mitochondria-domains that only big pharma venture into-consistency and energy that confirm year after year our spirit and commitment of BORN TO RISE.
Our mission is to apply our technologies to offer the best health solutions for humans to remain healthy, energetic, and resilient, with the vision that all can live 100 years old.
The origin of the name comes from the pioneering nanotechnology: NINAPHARM is the abbreviation of Nutraceutical Innovations Nano Active. This first generation of formula impacted the human capacity to counter extreme physical and mental stress. It was tried by the alpinists and Mont Blanc guides who experience constant high UV, muscle pain, and mental stress during their expeditions, making it a powerful cortisol reduction nutraceutical and one of the first stress resilience supplements in the region.
NINAPHARM’s vertically integrated and modular business model is geared towards having direct control of the phases that offer sustained competitive advantages to our partners’ clinics, putting the pursuit of ever-increasing customer demand from looking younger to feeling younger.
By specializing on Microbiome technology, NINAPHARM keeps increasing its agility to offer its partners innovative solutions with edge-from skin-gut-brain solutions to mitochondria energy and metabolic syndrome treatments that, while improving patients’ health, can shield them from long-term side effects that conventional medicine can cause.
This includes high-potential AI-powered nutraceutical development, helping transform the future of proactive health care with a human-first approach.
NINAPHARM focused on exclusively supplying partners with ingredients and formula, without branding, under the spirit of “innovator for innovators,” with the exception of the Japanese market where NINAPHARM considers Japan as the world’s most mature longevity market and offers very competitive conditions for testing its latest innovations.
This unique business model allowed us to focus our resources on innovation, in an expedition spirit of reaching the peak of performance on our technologies with full independence and long-term focus on bringing the best stress resilience supplements and performance recovery solutions for consumers.
NINAPHARM is, by its nature, an ever-evolving company, pushing towards reinvention and continuous pioneering.
NINAPHARM has a very strong corporate culture and uniqueness, characterized by its ability to unleash extraordinary innovations while remaining humble and true to its mountain origins.
It is a culture based on the commitment to solve human health challenges, and the ability to bring human talents together to become one force-a force rising to our own best.
THE PURPOSE OF NINAPHARM IS TO UNLEASH THE EXTRAORDINARY ENERGY IN EVERYONE.
We believe this energy should carry people through a long, active life where they can truly live to 100 years.
From invisible bacteria, we learn the capacity to be everywhere. We can succeed as long as we remain humble without vanity.
We are never satisfied and, as young souls, always looking to imagine a better next. This mindset also drives our leadership in AI-powered nutraceutical development.
It’s the capacity to collaborate that alpinists inspired in us. Together, we can go higher. Our scientists, researchers, engineers, and innovation teams develop anti-aging nutraceuticals, alpinist health supplements, and more to impact millions of lives.
We identify risky parts of the innovation value chain and invest to master the challenge of being the first. From futuristic technologies that intimidate large companies, we aim to achieve long-term supremacy for our partners. This includes breakthroughs in cortisol reduction nutraceutical and performance recovery solutions.
We want to create a legacy of kind people. All our members have a reputation and attitude of kindness. In everything we do—from science to service-we ensure this legacy stays strong.
We believe humans work hard during the first 50 years of their life to enjoy the second half. We think it’s unfair that the second half is often shorter or of lower quality. With our technologies and stress resilience supplements, we aim to ensure people can live to 100 years with energy and joy.
Opposing the conventional process, we invest in free-spirited scientists who challenge existing methods and pioneer new paths. We provide them with the resources and access to bring prototypes to scale, creating AI-powered nutraceutical development that delivers high-value health solutions sustainably.
