The contest seeks innovative synthetic biology solutions to global challenges, from climate change to health and sustainable manufacturing.

We are pleased to announce that our partner eureKARE is organizing the second edition of the eurekAWARDS, a unique opportunity for researchers and entrepreneurs to compete for expert advice, in-kind start-up support, and potential funding.

Synthetic biology projects must address a clear and proven unmet need, and add value to the following three key categories: the green economy, the blue economy, and sustainability. Participants have until October 6 to submit their applications.
