SynBioBeta 2025 - Keynote
Meet the Next-Gen of Revolutionary Fermentation and Large-Scale Biomanufacturing
Contract Development and Manufacturing Organizations (CDMOs) are at the forefront of fermentation. Rather than waste money building fermentation capacity from scratch, companies can transform their biomanufacturing processes with external experts. By leveraging their collective experience and economies of scale, CDMOs can harness the power of engineered organisms to drive innovation and efficiency across diverse industries. By seamlessly integrating fermentation with cutting-edge synthetic biology techniques, these global facilities not only boost productivity but also promote environmental sustainability. Through decades of in-house knowledge, strategic industry collaborations, and an unwavering commitment to shaping the future of biotechnology, our leading team isn’t merely anticipating trends; we are actively creating them.
