Shape Therapeutics: Funding, Investors & Team (Oct 2026)

Shape Therapeutics’ next-generation gene therapy platforms enable the development of cures in neurodegenerative disorders, oncology, metabolic and rare genetic diseases. This is done by redirecting the human cellular machinery already present in our cells, thereby bypassing risks of in vivo immunogenicity and permanent off-target damages commonly associated with CRISPR-based technologies.

About FundedIQ's Shape Therapeutics 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 Shape Therapeutics is left off this page rather than filled in.
