EUROS, BITS, and ATOMS: Journey to the Bio Revolution
Learn why biotech is the next global revolution after personal computing - on a cross-disciplinary journey with Andrii Shekhirev, hosted by BeLoud, SSE Business Lab Riga, and Biocatalyst Foundation.
Biotech is eating the world...
...and the world will be eating biotech!
During this informal meetup, Andrii will share why he is all-in on biotechnology - and how a background from SSERiga helps build startups, develop companies, and kickstart ecosystems.
We'll have special guests over, representing biotech 🏢 industry, 🚀 startups, 💰 capital, and 🧪 science.
Discover what engineered biology is capable of, beyond keeping us alive and healthy -
turn CO2 emissions into fuel (or anything else, really!)
feed 10 billion people using 10x less land and water
construct buildings that can heal themselves
store all world's data in a ping-pong ball
establish space habitation
and so much more
