Industrial Biotechnology offers many opportunities for a more sustainable production of chemicals and food ingredients. Fermentation-based solutions, like precision fermentation, require optimal production strains. This is where Strain Manager can assist start-ups or corporates.
My long previous experience in R&D in industry and academia allows me to provide advice on the best of what modern biotechnology has to offer for industrial applications. For this reason I started Strain Manager.
