Synbio Powerhouse is striving to produce business models based on synthetic biology and to provide opportunities in synthetic biology for partnering, education, business building, mentoring, and co-creation. Creating new materials is part of the future challenges for the circular economy, and the research field of synthetic biology combines natural science with engineering. Adding new DNA to living organisms creates possibilities for vaccines, biofuels and foods, while also giving rise to ethical questions.
Synbio Powerhouse is currently funded by VTT, Sitra, Jenny and Antti Wihuri Foundation and Aalto University.
