Eterna Regeneratives joins Kadans Science Partner’s London Innovation Centre in Canary Wharf

LONDON, UK, 17 September 2026: Kadans Science Partner (“Kadans”) has today announced that King’s College spin-out Eterna Regeneratives (“Eterna”) has launched its first laboratory at The London Innovation Centre in Canary Wharf. Co-founded by Khaled Eissa and Dr Sherif Elsharkawy in 2024, Eterna is set to begin commercial development for its radical new enamel-regrowing technology as it moves from Kings College, initially targeting the $43bn global oral care market.

Research led by co-founder and King’s College London lecturer Dr Sherif Elsharkawy attracted international attention last year, after studies found the team’s revolutionary patented material could successfully regrow damaged tooth enamel using keratin – a protein found in human hair, skin and wool. Unlike many other tissues in the human body, tooth enamel cannot naturally regenerate once it has been lost, which can lead to hypersensitivity, cavities, tooth pain and the gradual deterioration of teeth.

Following strong in vitro results, Eterna has now successfully launched its own laboratory space at Kadans’ London Innovation Centre, focusing on its capability to scale production and create future innovations. The team is now working to identify production partners and strategic collaborators capable of bringing the technology to the mass market in the form of toothpaste and mouthwash.

Kadans has a strong track record of supporting occupiers as they transition from stealth into a growth phase, with companies able to access tailored, hands-on support and valuable connections to Kadans’ thriving ecosystem of more than 500 UK and Europe-based occupiers. With a growing community of businesses and innovators based in Canary Wharf, including Myricx Bio, AviadoBio and others, Eterna will be able to benefit from the unique offering the London Innovation Centre provides to help companies achieve their goals. Its location also offers occupiers unparalleled connectivity with strong transport links via the Elizabeth line, Jubilee line and Docklands Light Rail (DLR), across London, and to Heathrow Airport and London City Airport as well as access to a wealth of shop, cafes, bars and restaurants, activities and open green and water spaces.

Khaled Eissa, CEO and co-founder of Eterna Regeneratives said:
“The team at Eterna does not believe that symptom management should be the only solution. The only way to truly heal the human body is to help it heal itself. We wanted to create a readily available product that has the potential to deliver long-term results, at a fraction of the cost of other treatments. Our technology has demonstrated its potential to restore tooth enamel, and we’re excited to scale production and create future innovations from our new laboratory at the London Innovation Centre in Canary Wharf.”

Oliver King, Commercial Lead at Kadans Science Partner, said: “Eterna Regeneratives’ decision to launch their first laboratory at Kadans’ London Innovation Centre in Canary Wharf marks an exciting milestone for both companies. Canary Wharf has an established and growing community of innovative healthcare and life sciences businesses and Kadans is uniquely positioned to provide the resources and support needed to help companies like Eterna grow and succeed. We look forward to playing a small part in Eterna’s journey as they bring their revolutionary enamel-regrowing technology to market.”

The London Innovation Centre forms part of the broader science and innovation offering at Canary Wharf, which, once complete in early 2028, will also include One North Quay. Spread across 23 storeys, the 823,000 sq ft GIA purpose-built science and innovation centre is set to be London’s most powerfully connected campus, offering unparalleled facilities and opportunities for collaboration in the heart of one of the world’s most dynamic urban environments. Once the building is completed, innovative science and technology businesses located across the Wharf will be able to scale and relocate to different sized spaces as their needs change.
