What to Expect
Synthetic biology promises to transform how we produce fuels, chemicals, materials, and ingredients by enabling biobased routes to valuable products. While challenges like scale-up inefficiencies, high development costs, and technical complexity persist, startups are advancing new platform technologies and business models to unlock synthetic biology’s full potential. Â
In this Ideathon, Lux explores innovations and challenges in synthetic biology, highlighting emerging developers, their progress, and the evolving market landscape. Startups are addressing four key questions:Â
- Which platform technologies can deliver the most impactful near- and long-term applications?Â
- How are innovators improving yields, reducing costs, and enabling scalable production?Â
- What strategies are emerging to integrate the entire synthetic biology value chain from feedstocks to end-products?Â
- How are companies aligning platform capabilities with product-specific performance needs and market demand?Â
