SynBioBeta 2025 - Keynote
Making It Happen: Accelerating the Global Bioeconomy:
This panel will bring together leaders across industry, public sector and the community to examine the systemic barriers slowing the bioeconomy’s growth and ask, “What best practices are we seeing to unlock progress?” Despite breakthroughs in synbio—including recent our findings showing 96% of businesses are advancing biosolutions—progress remains stalled by discovery costs, scaling challenges, regulatory uncertainty, and investment bottlenecks. Join this session to understand how these challenges are being overcome to ensure synbio moves from future predictions to large-scale impact. The discussion will focus on tangible actions to accelerate this transition and realize the full economic promise of the bioeconomy.
