Ginkgo Bioworks

Headquartered in Boston, Ginkgo Bioworks uses the most advanced technology on the planet – biology – to grow products instead of manufacturing them. We design custom microbes for customers across multiple markets, and build our foundries to scale the process of organism engineering using software and hardware automation.

Our Areas of Expertise

• Producing valuable ingredients via fermentation with engineered yeasts for perfumes, foods, cosmetics, and more.
• Where fermentation is already used in bioindustrial applications, organism engineering can improve efficiency and sustainability.
• Enzymes are used in applications from cheesemaking to pharmaceuticals to stonewashed jeans. We're discovering better enzymes for more applications.
