    Become a partner of European Biotech Week 2022

    05/04/2022
    PRESS RELEASE
    Brussels, 6 April 2022

    Join us for the 10th edition of the European Biotech Week (#EBW2022) – an annual Week celebrating biotechnology and highlighting its role in everyday life. This year, the Week will be held from 26 September to 2 October 2022 across Europe.

    Launched in 2013, EuropaBio’s initiative brings all stakeholders - scientists, companies, academics, students and policymakers - together physically or online to celebrate biotechnology, address challenges for society and industry and find synergies for enhanced collaboration.

    ‘’EuropaBio is proud to invite, once again, the biotechnology community to join our annual flagship campaign - European Biotech Week. In past years, biotechnology has led the waydelivering bringing innovation, investment and excellence and has contributed immensely to healthier and more sustainable everyday life of European citizens. Biotechnology remains extremely important in addressing global challenges such as climate change and pandemics, and national priorities, such as security of food supply and medicines, that stem from conflict. ’’, said Dr Claire Skentelbery, Director General of EuropaBio.

    Get involved: link your event or submit a thesis

    The key to the success of the European Biotech Week is the active involvement of organisations, companies, and individuals. Any school, university, museum, company, institution, association or organisation based in Europe is welcome to organise events as part of the Week.

    You can become an official partner of European Biotech Week by linking your event to the Week - either during the Week or one week before or after. We will provide you with communications materials, list your event on the European Biotech website and promote it on our social media channels.

    If you are a student or a recent graduate you can take part in the Week by submitting your thesis on Industrial or Healthcare biotechnology topics. The Essay Competition is open to EU or Ukrainian citizens (or permanent EU residents) up to the age of 35. The winning essays will receive €1000 or €500 prizes. More details in the Rules, Terms and Conditions.

    Insulin

    Insulin is one of the most widely known biopharmaceutical. Biotechnology revolutionised its manufacturing process and led to the development of new types of insulin through r-DNA technology.

    Detergents

    Enzymes and biosurfactancts are alternative ingredients that improve the performance of detergents, while leading to water and energy savings and reductions in CO2 emissions and water toxicity.

    Clothes

    Clothes made from alternative fibres produced by microorganisms can be 8x stronger than steel, 100% recyclable, biodegradable and replace fossil-fuel based or resource-intensive textiles.

    Algal Omega 3

    Algal Omega-3 is an innovative feed product for aquaculture. It reduces the impact on climate change by 30-40% compared to fish oil and saves 60 tons of wild fish for every ton of Algal Omega-3 used.
