About Us

Our Evolution

The company was founded in 2017 in Melbourne, Australia and emerged from the founder's work as a dietitian together with Monash University’s Medicines Manufacturing Innovation Centre (MMIC) research expertise to both verify and test the scientific methodologies.

Research and Development continued to evolve, to expand the breadth of the delivery platform across various applications. In early 2024 the Gelteq team expanded into the purpose-built Monash Innovation Labs which is a growth and development ecosystem within Monash University. Gelteq consolidated its public listing on the Nasdaq: GELS in October 2024.
