Wild Bioscience

Wow that's not a sight I was expecting to see this morning! Thanks Norrsken for putting us on the Nasdaq Tower in Times Square during Climate Week NYC! Norrsken have an awesome campaign where they work with top investors to identify and showcase 100 impactful startups working on ways to fix the future. I'm beyond proud to see Wild Bioscience in the Impact/100. Also many thanks to Sifted for highlighting us as one of the 13 UK companies who made it onto the global list! For anyone looking for 100 reasons to get excited about the future I highly recommend browsing these lists (shared in the comments below).

Here's Wild scientist Alexander Bridgen presenting at the🔥THE HEAT #climatetech festival hosted by VOYAGERS.io last Friday. We had fun showcasing our progress developing carbon sequestering crops to transform farms into the world's biggest carbon sink!

We recently welcomed BBC South to our HQ to show them how we are developing climate-smart crops. This video clip features our CEO Ross Hendron and researchers Joey Lau, Thea Jones, and Cerys Viner.

Beyond excited and honoured to accept two business awards on behalf of Wild Bioscience. I'm immensely proud of our entire team for bringing the dedication and ingenuity that makes Wild Bio a great, and now award-winning, business! Many thanks to the judges at Oxfordshire Local Enterprise Partnership (OxLEP) for awarding us the New Business Award! And many thanks to the judges at The Oxford Trust and Oxfordshire Business First for awarding us the Emerging Tech Business Award!

The Oxford innovation ecosystem is thriving, with so many other fantastic companies in attendance at the awards. It’s great to be a (growing) part of this community.

What does an enzyme, a chaotic rabbit population, and the world’s strangest vegetable all have in common?

It was nice to reflect on Wild Bioscience's mission and founding story with Oxford University Innovation & University of Oxford recently. The Oxford ecosystem is special for many reasons. Being part of it has been transformative for me on a personal level. "It’s incredibly inspiring to be surrounded by world-leading experts who are rolling up their sleeves to create impact with their research."

We're celebrating success! The whole team at Wild Bio is delighted to learn we're finalists for the Oxfordshire Business Awards (OXBA). We are finalists for two great categories: 🏅 Emerging Tech Business Award - awarded by The Oxford Trust & Oxfordshire Business First 🏅 New Business Award - awarded by Oxfordshire Local Enterprise Partnership (OxLEP) Looking forward to meeting other finalists at the awards night! #oxba #celebratingoxfordshirebusiness

More than 50 years after the conclusion of the space race, the term moonshot is enjoying a revival. This year the World Agri-tech Innovation summit had its own moonshot theme: How do we create a climate-resilient agricultural system? We need to cultivate more moonshots.

Crops are essential for feeding the world and fighting climate change. At Wild Bioscience we're developing next generation crops to tackle these growing challenges. "A subtle tweak can make a step change to how efficiently a plant behaves." It was a pleasure to sit down with Tom Allen-Stevens and share how we're combining machine learning and evolutionary biology to design yield-boosting and carbon-removing gene edits. https://lnkd.in/es6NRDJi
