IndieBio

Listen to startups that are changing the means of production -- by engineering biology.

<p>Mass production doesn&#x27;t have to create mass pollution. This event will highlight three founders who are changing the way we build, make, and do. Learn how engineering biology is increasing sustainability of protein production, cultured meats, and biofermented products as you meet the current IndieBio class companies.</p><h2>Speakers: </h2><h3>Aiden Tinafar of <a href="http://www.liberumbio.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Liberum Bio</a></h3><p>THE DESKTOP PC OF PROTEIN SYNTHESIS</p><p>The market size of recombinant proteins today is $119 billion. But it’s expected to reach $400 billion just by 2025. To get there, a better approach to innovation is needed. Today, to produce any sort of custom recombinant protein, it takes weeks. This dramatically slows down scientists’ ability to test, iterate, and improve. Liberum’s affordable, benchtop device will cut that time down to a few hours. Scientists will love the control this gives them over their work. Liberum strongly believes that as custom proteins get as easy as pushing a button, the current $18 billion market for custom proteins will take a larger share of the overall market.</p><h3>Nikolai Mushnikov of <a href="https://www.asimica.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Asimica</a></h3><p>A LEAP FORWARD IN MICROBIAL FERMENTATION </p><p>Biomanufacturing through fermentation is becoming a huge industry, driving growth in foods, materials, fuels, biochemicals, and pharma. One of its biggest challenges is that when microbial factories are maximized for output, the stress causes genetic drift – these are known as “escape mutations.” The microbes’ yield falls, then collapses. Production has to be restarted, and days are lost. First reported in Nature Chemical Biology, Asimica has a novel way to bring stem-like properties to microbes, so that factory cells are continuously refreshed by younger, unmutated microbes. Asimica is selectively choosing fermentation partners to prove their impact.  </p><h3>Cai Linton of <a href="https://www.multus.media/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Multus Media</a></h3><p>ANIMAL-FREE AND SUSTAINABLE CULTURING MEDIA FOR CELLULAR AGRICULTURE AND R&amp;D</p><p>Cultivated meat is a sustainable way of producing meat, without the need to kill animals. However, cultivated meat production is very expensive, a product of the animal-based nutrients required for its cultivation: these nutrients currently comprise more than 80% of production costs. Multus Media is developing tailored, inexpensive nutrients to make cultivated meat completely animal-free and affordable for everyone. </p>
