Velia is an emerging biotechnology company based in San Diego, California, focused on the therapeutic potential of a newly identified and abundant class of human proteins. Foundational work by Velia's founders suggests that many of these proteins, previously overlooked, regulate biological functions essential to human health. Velia intends to discover and develop therapeutics that target these regulatory proteins, translating this biology into potential treatments. The effort builds on early discoveries in the field to characterize these regulators and their role in health. Velia collaborates with other biotech and research organizations to advance its work, including a 2023 partnership with Amide Technologies and The Salk Institute to manufacture complex peptides for therapeutic applications.
