Samba Biologics
A digital debut for a life-changing biotech platform
The Project
Introducing Samba Biologics to the world
Samba Biologics, a preclinical-stage biotechnology company based in Vermont, is pioneering regenerative therapies designed to preserve and repair tissue after ischemic injury. With promising treatments like VasaPlex and Cell-Kro in development—targeting cardiac tissue recovery and cell engraftment—Samba is on the verge of transforming how medicine responds to stroke, heart attack, and optic nerve damage. When Samba was selected as one of only five startups to participate in the MassBioDrive accelerator, the company suddenly found itself in the spotlight. Yet, despite its scientific momentum, Samba lacked a foundational asset: a website. Our goal was clear—design and develop a professional digital presence that matched the innovation and ambition of their science.

The Need
Building trust through professionalism and purpose
Biologics had no previous web presence, which posed a challenge for visibility, credibility, and investor readiness. With the MassBioDrive announcement generating buzz and future press expected, it was essential to establish an online home that reflected the caliber of their work. The new website needed to serve multiple audiences: it had to validate the science for potential partners and investors, convey hope and clarity for non-scientific visitors, and position Samba as a thought leader in regenerative medicine. At its core, the site had to be trustworthy, modern, and communicate Samba’s unique platform and preclinical breakthroughs with confidence.
The Journey
Designing a web experience that breathes with purpose
We began with a discovery process that unpacked the science, vision, and values behind Samba Biologics. The website’s design was rooted in clarity and purpose—utilizing a clinical color palette of deep blue and soft white with subtle gradients that evoke precision. The layout is clean and immersive, with thoughtful whitespace that reflects focus, and movement that echoes life and vitality.
We created distinct sections for each biologic therapy, helping visitors quickly grasp the use cases and potential impact of both VasaPlex and Cell-Kro. Strategic calls-to-action were placed throughout, including opportunities to contact the team, explore the science, and follow company updates. The website also features light interactive animations that guide the eye and emphasize progress without overwhelming the user.
This was more than a standard launch—it was Samba Biologics’ digital debut. The build included messaging development, copywriting, image sourcing, and front-end WordPress development, ensuring the company had a high-performance website that could scale with their growth and adapt as new studies and applications evolve. We also set up Google Analytics to track key user behavior and implemented SEO best practices to support future search visibility. In addition, we created social media accounts that matched the visual identity of the website, providing Samba with a cohesive digital presence across platforms.
The Result
A Confident first impression and a platform for growth
The website launch gave Samba Biologics a credible and compelling digital presence just in time for its MassBioDrive debut. The new site reinforced their scientific authority and positioned them as a key innovator in regenerative medicine. With clear storytelling, bold visuals, and accessible content, Samba’s platform now speaks to both the complexity of its research and the simplicity of its mission: to preserve and restore life after injury.
Since going live, the website has supported increased engagement from investors, scientists, and strategic partners. It serves as a foundation for future visibility and expansion, giving Samba Biologics the tools it needs to grow—and the presence it deserves to be seen.
