AMFEP and EuropaBio - the European Association for Bioindustries organised an invitation-only roundtable at the EuropaBio offices in Brussels this morning, bringing together key industry and policy stakeholders to discuss the future of the enzyme industry in Europe. ? ?? How are enzymes pivotal to a competitive and robust EU biotechnology sector? ?? How do they encourage innovation and sustainability in different industries? ?? What will be the direction of policy for the future mandate of the EU? ? The discussion focused on how the enzyme industry can support the biotechnology ambitions of Europe as well as its competitiveness. We thank the industry leaders and experts for joining us. ? #Biotechnology #Enzymes #Sustainability #Innovation #EUIndustry #Policy #AMFEP #EuropaBio Claire Skentelbery Jakub Rusek Dr Anne-Gaelle Collot Ana Rivas Valero Lucie McMurtry

Last week, we submitted our response to the European Commission's Call for Evidence for the EU Startup and Scaleup Strategy. As the representative of 4500+ SMEs, startups and scaleups in the biotech sectors, we recommend actions facilitating their access to capital markets, favouring their growth. We also call for overcoming the EU's regulatory fragmentations and more investments to fill the gap between research and industries. ?? Read the full response below or at:?https://lnkd.in/e7YjtsiV

Jen is here!???????? ? Jen is a fictional #gene embarking on a journey to discover the immense potential of #biotech and genetic technologies, their applications and their benefits for the people and the planet. ??Over the next four weeks, Jen will take us on its adventures by explaining what genes are and how scientists use them. During its journey, it will illustrate examples of genetic applications in the #healthcare and industrial biotechnology sectors. ??You can learn more about Jen and the application and beneficial uses of biotech and genetic technologies at: https://lnkd.in/eHrBp95k ? And stay tuned for next Monday!

Equality, rights, and empowerment are the themes of this year’s UN #InternationalWomensDay. Last month, we released an updated series of women in STEM on our YouTube channel, featuring female colleagues who are shaping the #biotech community. ?????? They shared their journeys in science, their experiences in the EU Bubble, and the role of allies in advancing gender equality. However, marking today should serve as a reminder that taking action and celebrating the role of #women should not be limited only to this day. ??

Today we published our response to the call for Evidence on the evaluation of the Public Procurement Directives. We recognize the role of public procurement in advancing biomanufacturing processes and innovative biotech products. Biotech, indeed, is key to accomplishing EU ambitions for competitive, healthy, resilient and sustainable economies and societies. At the same time, we call for ad hoc actions in the healthcare and industrial biotechnology sectors to support the market expansion of bio-based products within a fit-for-purpose public procurement. ??
