Commercialisation

This card helps you explore opportunities to bridge the gap between conceptual biodesign and its professional, commercial, and industrial application.

• How do you envision translating the innovative ideas in your biodesign work into commercially viable products or solutions?

• How do you navigate the challenge of commercialising biodesign innovations while ensuring they remain environmentally and ethically sustainable?

• In what ways will you design a sustainable system in which your biodesign product will flourish?

Biomason

Biomason is addressing one of the cement industry's most significant challenges: its massive carbon emissions. By concentrating on just one biodesign feature that sequesters carbon rather than emiting it, Biomason developed an enzymatic process where micro-organisms produce cement for commercial applications while also storing carbon in the process.

• Identify and start from the biodesign innovations in your project that are most easily commercialised.

• Identify potential for your biodesign project to generate various types of value (economic, ecologic, societal) during its whole product life- cycle.
