As pressure grows to scale sustainable innovation, this webinar will examine how emerging bioscience breakthroughs are driving measurable impact across food, health and industrial services.
The world faces mounting pressure to accelerate sustainable innovation at the intersection of food, health and industrial production, but moving from scientific discovery to scaled impact remains complex. From improving crop resilience and reducing environmental footprints to building healthier communities and more sustainable supply chains, bioscience innovations have become critical tools in tackling global sustainability challenges.
This webinar, hosted by Innovation Forum in partnership with the Iowa Economic Development Authority will explore how some of the latest bioscience breakthroughs are addressing these pressing issues. We’ll look at emerging trends shaping the next wave of sustainable innovation, the technologies driving impact, and how organisations are applying bioscience.
As a case study, we’ll look at how Iowa is emerging as a key hub for the biosciences, bringing together agriculture technology, medical innovation, and industrial biotechnology in one ecosystem.
Hear from industry leaders:
Patrick Wood, chief financial officer, Kemin
Mike Roof, chief technology officer vaccines & immunotherapeutic, Iowa State University
Sam Eathington, executive vice president, chief technology and digital officer, Corteva
