Celularity & Fountain Life Announce Partnership to Deliver Stem Cell Therapies Under New Florida Law
- Fountain Life operates four flagship longevity centers, including two in Florida, where a new state law effective July 1, 2025, authorizes licensed physicians to administer stem cell therapies to members with conditions in orthopedics, wound care, and pain management.
FLORHAM PARK, N.J., July 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Celularity Inc. (Nasdaq: CELU) (“Celularity”), a regenerative and cellular medicine company focused on addressing age-related and degenerative diseases, announced today that it entered into a strategic partnership with Fountain Life, a global leader in science-backed longevity and preventative health company, to supply stem cell therapy products manufactured and distributed by Celularity.
Fountain Life intends to deploy Celularity’s technology in accordance with Florida Statute § 458.3245, which became effective July 1, 2025. The law authorizes qualified physicians in the state of Florida to treat patients with autologous or allogeneic adult stem cell products under specific conditions, including the treatment of orthopedic conditions, wound healing, and pain management, without requiring investigational new drug (IND) approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Fountain Life currently operates four state-of-the-art longevity centers across the United States, including Naples, and Lake Nona-Orlando, Florida and soon to open in Miami. These centers are well-positioned to implement Florida’s new legal framework and deliver innovative, physician-directed regenerative cellular therapies to eligible patients.
Celularity is a pioneer in the field of cell therapies sourced ethically from the postpartum placenta. Its pipeline includes human placental-derived stems cells and mesenchymal stem cell-like product candidates, supported by extensive clinical datasets across multiple therapeutic areas aligned with the use cases permitted under the new Florida statute. Celularity maintains a substantial inventory of investigational cell therapies, which are immediately available for physician-directed use, at its FDA-registered, accredited GMP facility in Florham Park, New Jersey.
This collaboration aligns with Celularity’s mission to expand access to regenerative cellular therapies and provides a regulated framework for real-world deployment of its placental-based technologies.
“Celularity’s ability today to supply clinical-grade, ethically-sourced stem cells ensures ‘Day One’ readiness under the new Florida law to partners like Fountain Life,” said Robert J. Hariri, M.D., Ph.D., CEO and Chairman. “We applaud Florida’s proactive, data-driven approach to advancing investigational stem cell therapies and improving patient outcomes, for which Fountain Life, a leading science-backed longevity center, powered by AI, is an ideal partner.” Hariri added, “Celularity is unique in our ability to also deliver placental-derived biomaterials for many of the indications targeted in the Florida legislation and we are committed to meeting the high standards laid out in this important new healthcare law.”
“Cellular medicine is at the core of Fountain Life’s mission to transform healthcare and extend human longevity,” said Dr. William Kapp, CEO and co-founder of Fountain Life. “We apply the most rigorous standards to every regenerative therapy we offer, ensuring it meets the highest benchmarks for safety, efficacy, and scalability. Florida’s stringent criteria for stem cell sourcing align perfectly with our uncompromising commitment to clinical excellence. We chose to partner with Celularity because of their proven ability to meet and exceed those standards, providing our members access to the most vetted, advanced cellular therapeutics.”
