Biology in Silico: Multi-Agent Simulations of Life

From tissues morphing in development to microbes competing in a bioreactor, biology is inherently emergent. Multi-agent simulations — from platforms like BioDynaMo, CompuCell3D, and BIO-LGCA — are now powerful enough to model billions of interacting agents, capturing diffusion, metabolism, migration, and signaling with physical fidelity. Synthetic biologists are using these frameworks to probe design limits before moving to the lab, asking questions like: How far can diffusion alone carry a signaling molecule? What metabolic bottlenecks emerge in crowded cells? And how do engineered traits play out at population scale? This session will spotlight how agent-based models are becoming essential design environments for synthetic biology, helping teams test hypotheses virtually, anticipate failure modes, and translate biology into an engineering discipline rooted in predictive, quantitative simulation.

SynBioBeta is where the people building with biology meet the people funding, buying, and partnering with them. If you're raising capital, scouting the next wave of AIxBIO companies, or looking for your next technology partner - the people you need are here for three days.

The startups on stage this year are building programmable RNA medicines, virtual cell models, AI-designed enzymes, and proteins that replace sugar - alongside GSK, Sanofi, Novo Nordisk, Eli Lilly, J&J, Mars, Apple, Google, NVIDIA, Unilever, and P&G.

Watching where the partnerships form and which technologies the biggest players are actually evaluating is something you can't get from a report or a webinar. And our 1:1 Partnering App lets you book meetings before you arrive.

“SynBioBeta is a who’s who of AI and biology.
This is where the future is being built, so don't miss it”

Eric Schmidt

Former CEO

"For every single fund at Boom Capital, one of our best companies has come directly from SynBioBeta. I met Mammoth Bio at SynBioBeta, and I met Nabla Bio at SynBioBeta."

Celestine Schnugg

Founder

"Nabla was accelerated into existence because of SynBioBeta. I met Seth Bannon from 50 Years, Cee Cee Schnugg from Boom Capital, and others from Y Combinator there, and those same people seeded Nabla. The vibe, leverage, and energy at SynBioBeta are unreal."

Surge Biswas

Founder

"Our Series A came together because of a little bit of SynBioBeta magic. I’ve been attending for a decade and it’s been inspiring to watch the field evolve from a lot of hopes and dreams to real products and applications."

Jacob Glanville

Founder & CEO

"I met Algen at SynBioBeta and later invested in the company. It’s exactly the kind of connection that makes the community so valuable."

Bill Tai

Co-founder

"At SynBioBeta I met the team at Biomatter, an AI-driven enzyme design company. The environment made it easy to start a real conversation. That conversation turned into a collaboration to improve one of our enzymes. We're now exploring entirely new performance possibilities together."

Luis Cascao-Pereira

Head of Digital Biology

"Every time I attend SynBioBeta, I walk away with something transformative – a new investor, a fantastic hire, or an idea that changes how we work. It’s a community unlike any other."
