2. Welcome This directory is designed to foster business driven R&D partnerships within industrial biotechology. It has been inspired by the "Memorandum of Understanding", signed by the UK and Norwegian innovation agencies in 2011, outlining a series of activities to be undertaken on industrial biotechnology and biorefining. Industrial biotechnology is the use of biologically-based technologies, such as fermentation or biocatalysis, to develop new and more efficient and sustainable methods of producing energy, chemicals and materials. Biorefining is the identification, extraction and modification of valuable components from a biobased feedstock to support the biotechnology process. The UK-Norway partnership has so far led to eight co-funded projects and a variety of other shared activities.

About the UK-Norway agreement On the 23rd February 2011, Innovation Norway and the Technology Strategy Board signed a memorandum of understanding to collaborate on a number of activities focusing on industrial biotechnology and biorefining. These technologies underpin the bioeconomy, which in Europe has a market size of 2 trillion and employs 21.5 million people. Investment in these technologies could help to meet the increasing demand for a sustainable supply of food, industrial products and fuels. Both organisations believe that through joint activities, such as knowledge exchange and innovation projects, they will generate future economic growth.During the last two years, the partnership has: commissioned research to map UK-Norway opportunities contributed or commissioned five technical reports committed investment of over 2m into eight joint projects.The project participants include seven UK companies, eight Norwegian companies and one UK university. Two projects will be launching products this year.In addition, the partnership: has contributed content to over 20 events 100 individuals and organisations registered in online networks encouraged closer co-operation between its countries research and technology organisations.Projects funded: NorwegianProject Size (k)Pilot-scale production of a biologically active GlycoMar polysaccharide from a marine microalga using photobioreactor technologyMicroA190AMarineIB - Bioprocessing of sustainable marine resources for the production of highvalue chemicalsCentre for Process InnovationMarine BioProducts235Production of natural marine functional ingredients for skin careAquapharm Aqua Bio Biodiscovery Technology230Engineering cellulose using biotechnologyUnilever, CrodaBorregaard1,040Centre for Process InnovationAlgiPharma350Development of a scaleable, sustainable Biocatalysts manufacturing process for a novel, high-value polypeptideSeagarden195Development of a in vitro living skin equivalent Epistem for testing anti-inflammatory substancesScandiDerma 4502011UK2012 ALGIFERM - Alginate oligomers by fermentationHigh-value chemicals by biotechnological modifications of polysaccharide from wasteUnilever, Seagarden Glyndwr University, Croda, Almac1,435Further funding will be available in 2013 for UK-Norway projects.7 4. Technology Strategy Board The Technology Strategy Board is the UKs innovation agency. Our goal is to help accelerate economic growth by stimulating and supporting business-led innovation. Our programme and support for business innovation are a key part of the Governments industrial strategy. Our work in priority areas and our support for business innovation are key parts of our strategy. We helped to identify the eight great technologies at the heart of the UKs push for growth.We are setting up seven new Catapult technology and innovation centres, and all will be operational this year. They will provide a powerful new force for innovation in the UK. The High Value Manufacturing Catapult hosts the National Industrial Biotechnology Facility. Our view extends far beyond the UK to European and global opportunities which includes launching joint programmes with the key emerging economies of India and China. Everything we do is driven by the desire to help UK business bring new ideas and technologies to market. The Technology Strategy Board builds strategic partnerships with key organisations. It connects and creates engagement between people and organisations, which might not normally work together, and acts as a catalyst to enable developments that otherwise would not take place. The agreement with Innovation Norway is the first bilateral with another innovation agency but follows other UK-based partnerships. In 2013, it announced its partnership with BBSRC on an Industrial Biotechnology Catalyst.Our strategy for business innovation Concept to Commercialisation has five key aims: Accelerating the journey between concept and commercialisation Connecting the innovation-support landscape Turning government action into business opportunity Investing in priority theme areas based on potential Continuously improving our capability. Our 2012 Biosciences strategy focused on the following priority areas: genomics, industrial biotechnology, agriculture and food. Industrial biotechnology, encompassing biorefining, offers the opportunity for more efficient chemical processes and the generation of sustainable energy and materials. Over 55 industrial-biotechnology using projects have been funded through a series of high-value chemicals competitions, which were initiated in 2009. These projects are in addition to others funded through some of our other programmes such as Smart, Knowledge Transfer Partnerships and ERANETs. Our Enabling Technologies strategy will focus biosciences investment in three areas: characterisation and discovery tools, production and processing and bioinformatics. Our current High Value Manufacturing strategy identifies 22 national competencies for investment including biotech, biological and synthetic biology. Through implementation of these strategies, the Technology Strategy Board hopes to generate wealth-creating, innovative projects in the future.8 5. Photo supplied by Rothamsted Research 6. Biosciences Knowledge Transfer Network Knowledge sharing and open innovation help companies engage with the ideas and opportunities around them. This is the purpose of the 15 businessled KTNs, which have more than 30,000 individual members. In 2010, the Technology Strategy Board created an online collaboration and social networking tool, _connect, which hosts the KTNs together with many other groups.10KTNs are a dynamic resource for individuals to enable business innovation by sharing knowledge, ideas and opportunities within and between specific sectors. One of these is the Biosciences Knowledge Transfer Network which drives the conversion of the United Kingdoms bioscience knowledge into innovative agricultural, food and industrial bioscience products and processes for the benefit of business, the economy, the environment and society. The KTN serves four identified market sectors: Industrial bioscience Animal breeding and animal health Plant breeding and crop protection Food technology and manufacture Biosciences KTN puts companies and innovators in contact with the funding and knowledge that they need to bring new products and processes to market. Our aim is to connect and catalyse by: Driving knowledge transfer between the science base and industry Creating networking opportunities and stimulating innovation key to our industry sectors Providing a coherent voice for industry to inform government policy.The Biosciences KTN can help innovation by integrating academic, industrial and business communities within and across sectors that may not have previously interacted closely. We combine the knowledge and expertise of all stakeholders, offering new opportunities for business or research enhancement. Biosciences KTN can: Provide access to and advice on funding and collaboration opportunities Mentor funding applications Help build partnerships and identify new business opportunities Provide free access on latest developments, events and funding opportunities through our online _connect website (www.innovate.org/biosciencesktn) Hosted by the KTNs, there are also Special Interest Groups (SIGs) created to work across KTNs on specific tasks. One of these is the Industrial Biotechnology SIG (IB-SIG). Set-up 3 years ago, its purpose is to encourage UK industry to utilise industrial biotechnology to create chemicals more efficiently and sustainably. This has been achieved under strategic direction from the Industrial Biotechnology Leadership Forum and on-the-ground has visited over 100 companies across the country. Several of these have proceeded to test the feasibility of using industrial biotechnology in their current work. 7. Innovation Norway connecting, informing and funding Innovation Norway connects people, businesses and communities across borders. Our key objectives are to nurture business innovation and entrepreneurship, foster regional development, international cooperation and market access. We build local business networks in key markets through our more than thirty offices around the globe.12Innovation Norway is the main government agency for industry development, with close to 800 employees and about 800 million in grants and loans under management. In addition to its international offices, the organisation has business units in all Norwegian counties, which provides a unique knowledge of Norwegian companies in all sectors. Innovation Norway acts as an advisor to the Government on industry policy in close co-operation with the Norwegian Research Council. For instance, both organisations were strongly involved in preparation of the Governments white paper on biotechnology, which was published in December 2011. Based on the recommendations drawn up in the national biotech strategy, Innovation Norway has recently launched a new program to support the emerging bioeconomy. This initiative has several measures, with the key objective to stimulate innovation and investments into sustainable production of high value products.We support projects along the whole value chain from market investigations, technical feasibility and scaling up of novel processes. In 2013 we aim to invest about 8,5 million in industrial biotechnology and biorefining, a figure we hope to gradually increase in future years. It is our ambition to help Norwegian companies become leaders in the use of renewable resources, e.g. efficient value creation from wood or marine derived biomass, areas where Norway by tradition is strong. We firmly believe, however, that cooperation is crucial, particularly with respect to progressing the bioeconomy. Establishing the Norwegian Industrial Biotech Network and seeking a partnership with the UK, illustrate our emphasis on connecting people. It is people who run businesses. We hope that this directory will foster new business collaborations across the North Sea. 8. Norwegian Industrial Biotechnology Network Growth of the bioeconomy depends on the interplay between renewable feedstock, new technology and emerging markets. The Norwegian Network for Industrial Biotechology connects business and knowledge across sectors and geography. The networks focus is on biotechnology in conversion, valorization and manufacturing processes based on raw materials from agriculture, forestry and the marine sector. The overarching mission is to create value for society through economic growth, as well as a more sustainable industry.14The activities reflect four strategic objectives: Facilitate cross-sectorial and multidisciplinary networking Identify and communicate market opportunities Promote investments by competent capital Increase awareness of industrial biotechnology in society We organise seminars, workshops and study tours in order to disseminate knowledge, alone or in cooperation with partner organisations or Government agencies. We communicate business news, market information, new grant programs and help the grant providing agencies identifying new projects. Norwegian Industrial Biotechnology Network was established in 2011 and has currently over 50 institutionalmembers. These members include companies from all relevant sectors, as well as the most prominent research organisations in Norway. Our website offers a gateway to the Norwegian biotech industry, providing a comprehensive list of relevant companies, members as well as nonmembers. www.indbiotech.no We respond to international enquiries and help companies in their search for business partners. We also make connections to academic centres of excellence and Government support agencies, such as Innovation Norway, The Norwegian Research Council or Invest in Norway. Our office address is in the city of Trondheim, centrally located in Norway and home to the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, as well as several large RTOs. 9.
