🚨 Big Win for Opera Bioscience 🚨 We just landed a Phase I SBIR grant from the NIH. This is an important milestone and a huge statement of support. Our tech is here to make protein production cheaper and easier, and this grant is the fuel we need to push even harder. Shoutout to the relentless crew who've put in the hard work to get us to where we are, and to the National Institute of General Medical Sciences for backing bold science. We're just getting things started—expect more breakthroughs as we're here to change-up the decades old processes holding biomanufacturing back. #SBIR #NIHGrant #BiotechInnovation #ProteinExpression #RecombinantProteins #Biotechnology #OperaBioscience #BiotechRebellion

High purity recombinant proteins for biotech and therapeutics.
About us
Opera Bioscience enables Biotech partners to produce high purity proteins and antibodies for therapeutic use, while also minimizing development and manufacturing timelines. By harnessing a bacterial system that can fully secrete proteins out of the cell in a single step, Opera Bioscience can ensure the creation of high-purity proteins from the outset. This approach removes the need for costly and time-consuming downstream processing steps, capitalizing instead on highly efficient continuous fermentation processes. The outcome is a protein manufacturing solution that is both cost-effective and scalable, allowing customers to expedite the launch of their biosimilars and therapeutics while keeping production costs at a minimum.

Couldn’t make it to Austin for SXSW? Well now you can now listen to Julie and her fellow Fellows discuss climate-related innovation on Activate’s inaugural podcast recorded during their panel at SXSW.
🎧 We’re excited to launch our new podcast, “Science on a Mission”! This podcast intends to demystify the path to commercialization for deep tech innovation. Whether you're a scientist looking to bring your discovery to market, an investor seeking the next big thing, or simply a tech enthusiast eager to stay on the cutting edge, "Science on a Mission" is your guide to the future of technology. Join us as we explore the stories, strategies, and successes that define the journey of deep tech innovation. Our first three episodes were recorded live at SXSW. In our first episode, Molly Wood, founder and CEO of Molly Wood Media, talks to Activate CEO Cyrus Wadia, Opera Bioscience Chief Science Officer and Co-founder Julie Ming Liang, and Terra Watts Co-founder and CEO Kaitlyn A. Suarez about how the urgent need for climate solutions has ignited a surge in innovation, pushing the boundaries of environmental technology and sustainability. This conversation aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the challenges and opportunities for science founders, the drivers of growth in climate tech startups, inspiring areas of innovation, and the role of investors.
