About us
The Industrial Biotechnology Innovation Centre (IBioIC) was established in 2014 to stimulate growth of the Industrial Biotechnology (IB) in Scotland. IBioIC is recognised as a European centre of excellence and connects world-leading industry with outstanding academic expertise and government to bring new IB processes and products to the global market. IBioIC is a key driver of Scotland’s National Plan for Industrial Biotechnology, which recently set a new target of £1.2 billion in associated turnover and 4,000 direct employees by 2025 for the industry in Scotland. IBioIC facilitates collaboration, provides scale-up capabilities, creates networks and develops skills and training provisions. IBioIC has more than 140 industry members, over 70% of which are SME or micro companies. To date, IBioIC has provided support for more than 200 companies, across a range of collaborative innovation projects, fostering academic-business partnership and co-funded by business. A total investment of £6.4 million to date has leveraged an additional £28.5 million from businesses, follow-on funding from other sources or partnering with other funding initiatives. As a direct outcome from the collaborative projects funded alone, 327 high value green jobs have been protected or created by the businesses involved, leading to a further 3,000 jobs. IBioIC has supported 369 students through its skills and training partnerships across 18 Universities and research institutes and four Further Education Colleges in Scotland.

Scale-up Facilities manager at #FlexBio run by the IBioIC and hosted at Heriot-Watt University. Helping Scotland's start-ups, academics and SME's scale their bioprocesses towards commercialisation
Guess the name of our new arrivals? 💙🩷 Delighted to welcome 3 new bioreactors to the #FlexBIO bioprocessing scale-up facility hosted by Heriot-Watt University, which forms part of one of the RESILIENCE Skills Centres of Excellence for #medicinesmanufacturing training. If you didn’t know, all bioreactors and fermenters have names - but what shall we call them? Here Lorenzo Miele, one of our upstream processing scientists is getting to grips with the intuitive controllers. Many thanks to Getinge and Applikon Biotechnology, as well as Alicja Zimmer and Ben Holden during the install processes. These bioreactors will be used to train individuals in mammalian cell cultivation and scale-up. This newly designated space, specific for tissue culture will allow training and further scale-up capacity from flask-scale to bioreactors. Essential skills within the biopharma sector which are much sought after by industry. It is hoped that the space and techniques will be mapped in #virtualreality so we can take the lab to RESILIENCE college and schools members, with reciprocated visits and shorter training times. Accessible for all. Sciencey bit 🧑🏻🔬- 3x 1.5L (TV) jacketed vessels, pH and optical DO control. MFC controlled air, CO2 and N2, micro spargers, marine impellors and off-gas measurements. RESILIENCE is funded by Innovate UK and Office for Life Sciences (Department for Science, Innovation and Technology) Industrial Biotechnology Innovation Centre, Nicole Barnes, Laura Porcza, Nik Willoughby, Hareklea Markides, Fiona McLaughlin
