Babylon Micro-Farms: Funding, Investors & Team (Sep 2026)

Babylon Micro-Farms offers a smart, scalable indoor farm tailored to meet the client's needs. At the touch of a button, Babylon delivers a simple yet engaging indoor growing experience. Babylon Micro-Farms is leveraging its remote management technology to develop a complete indoor farming platform that will power a distributed network of micro-farms across North America. They designed a low-cost microfarm to provide nutritious produce for food-insecure refugees in the Middle East. Alexander and Graham were initially inspired by the desire to bring the benefits of sustainable hydroponic farming to those who needed them. They set out to develop technology that would automate the complex aspects of indoor farming and, in doing so, make this transformative method of crop production accessible to anyone.

About FundedIQ's Babylon Micro-Farms Funding Data

FundedIQ tracks announced funding rounds and refreshes this profile every week. Round dates, stages and amounts are normalised to a single format, converted to US dollars, and de-duplicated: two records of the same round announced days apart are merged, and two genuinely different rounds are kept apart on the amounts they disclose. Amounts shown are the disclosed figures only — a round announced without a number is listed and excluded from the total rather than estimated.

Employee counts are reported bands, not exact headcounts. Founder and executive names carry the job title on record. Anything we do not hold for Babylon Micro-Farms is left off this page rather than filled in.
