The Biology Data Flywheel: From DNA Synthesis to Pharma-Scale AI Discovery

Drug discovery is not limited by models. It is limited by data. While AI is accelerating molecular design and target discovery, the real bottleneck remains the generation, integration, and interpretation of biological datasets that are complex, heterogeneous, and often not yet predictive. Pharma-scale discovery requires more than algorithms. It requires new approaches to building and operationalizing data itself. This session explores how next-generation DNA synthesis, high-throughput experimentation, and integrated data infrastructures are enabling a new biology data flywheel. From experimental datasets that inform translational decisions to emerging standards for capturing real-world and preclinical signals, leaders will discuss how data generation strategies are reshaping discovery workflows. Speakers from pharma, AI-native biotech, and platform providers will examine how biology is becoming a programmable data layer, enabling faster biologics development, more informed portfolio decisions, and new collaborative models that connect experimental systems, computational tools, and pharma-scale discovery pipelines.

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."
