A lovely tribute to Stuart West, founder and director of Biocatalysts, and valued member of the BBNet board as a huge advocate for IB. Thank you Andy Ellis for your presentation. #bbnetconference24 @Biocats
Fantastic networking opportunity at the #bbnetconference24 dinner last night. It’s these connections and conversations that make collaboration and innovation happen.
Great to hear from Well’s & Co with some real life #biotech #innovations they’ve taken to reduce their carbon footprint, as part of the first session at #bbnetconference24
How great do the conference brochures look 👀 ?? Not long to go now until #BBNetConference24
🚀 Exciting News - we are pleased to launch the 4th round of BBNet BIV Applications! 🎉 Open until 30/06. Find out more and how to apply bbnet-nibb.co.uk/funding-type/b… #collaboration #Funding
We're excited to announce the launch of the final BBNet call for proof of concept funding applications! Supporting the exploration of innovative new ideas converting non-food biomass into sustainable fuels, chemicals, or materials, find out more here: bbnet-nibb.co.uk/funding-type/p…
We are pleased to confirm the final BBNet proof of concept call will be launched this Friday 15th March. If you’re interested to find out more ensure you are registered as a BBNet member on the website: bbnet-nibb.co.uk
Proof of concept funding provides researchers with the financial support and resources they need to validate their ideas, develop prototypes, and demonstrate the commercial potential of their innovations. 👀 Look out for the final BBNet POC funding call, coming very soon! 👀
Registration for our 3rd BBNet Conference is now open! This is a 3-day residential event, 10-12 April 2024 in Sheffield, at the Mercure Sheffield St Paul's Hotel & Spa. For more information and to register visit bbnet-nibb.co.uk/event/ @BBSRC
