The Biobizzhub operates as an open innovation environment. The focus is on collaboration, knowledge exchange and building complementary solutions around shared challenges in the bio-economy.
Collaboration options: from pilot to full-scale operation
One of the companies supported by the Biobizzhub is Recell, a start-up recovering cellulose from residual streams to produce sustainable raw materials. In collaboration with the hub, the company moved from a pilot installation of around 1,000 litres to a much larger reactor system, enabling significant scale-up of its process. This kind of trajectory shows how access to facilities, expertise and networks can accelerate the path from concept to independent operation.
The Biobizzhub can support different types of collaboration in the Netherlands. Details of each collaboration are tailored, with careful attention to IP, confidentiality and risk sharing.
