  • March:  science-based pitch contest, eurekAWARDS 2023
    The eurekAWARDS contest is a unique opportunity for researchers and entrepreneurs to compete for expert advice, in-kind start-up support, and potential funding. The contest seeks innovative synthetic biology solutions to global challenges, from climate change to health and sustainable manufacturing. 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.
