Dating back to the first human-aided cross-pollination, biotechnology has evolved a long way. In the recent years, biotechnology has made huge leaps and bounds to become more sophisticated, making headways towards more expansive applicability. The extraordinary impact of biotechnology on applied science and industries has developed business models for cost-effective research and development. It encourages stakeholders to establish policies to ensure therapeutic advances. The sector designs and produces a family of diverse bioproducts and services to emerge as environmental friendly smart medicine and materials. What was found only in the pages of science fiction books a few years back is true today. For instance, the world remained a spellbound witness as FDA approved Luxturna, a gene therapy, holding the capabilities of reversing the rare type of childhood blindness. Aiming at the penetration of industrial biotechnology across industries, the demand for DNA sequencing, fermentation, and recombinant technology is steadily increasing. Biotechnology frames the drastic changes in DNA sequencing from enabling the DNA populations to direct sequencing of the single molecule of DNA. Biomolecular engineers are paying special focus on the human microbiome; the synergistic relationships among microbes are being leveraged in order to accelerate the processing of chemicals in a mild environment. Today, microbiome-based therapeutics is a fecund field for drug developers, focusing on the science of bacteria. In addition, researchers are turning their interests toward bionic plants and natural plant biosynthesis from biofuels, with an objective to develop anti-cancer vaccines and proteins. That’s not all. Tissue engineering has opened ways to clinical biofabrication; scientists can now fabricate biosynthetic organs and implant it into patients. It demands cutting-edge research related to the use of cells, protein, biological materials, and biomaterials to build and manufacture blocks for biological systems or therapeutic products. Moreover, modern biosensors can monitor infections in real-time, releasing antiseptics as and when required. All the advancements are aimed at a single objective—to drive immunocompatibility, fabrication reproducibility and not to mention, cost-effectiveness. Biotechnology enriches the capabilities of industrial microbial processes and brings new genes to modify and standardize the style of living. Today, contemporary biotechnology offers biomaterials, which are fermentated of engineered microorganisms including polysaccharides, proteins, and even formerly synthetic polymers. The evolution of biotechnology has always promised advantages to the world and continues to drive results and researches, leading to scientific breakthroughs. While cutting-edge technology ensures a long-term growth for the biotech space, it is an uphill task for customers to decide on one from the wide assemblage of solutions. To make this task easier, we have assessed the top companies that solve biotech challenges by implementing the current technological trends in the space. A distinguished panel comprising CEOs, CIOs, VCs, Analysts and the editorial board of StartupCity has selected a list of biotech startups. We present to you StartupCity’s “15 Most Promising Biotech Startups - 2018.”
