SmartBio – Smart Solutions in Biotechnology
Developing responsible raw material production and the circular economy with industry
We are developing solutions for a green industrial transition. Our aim is to advance innovative and sustainable production of bio-based materials and circular economy.
Our strong practical expertise in the bioeconomy, business objectives and solutions that enable digital transformation meet in the research environments of the SmartBio key ecosystem – for example in industry, forests, greenhouses and in the primary sources of food production in fields.
Our specific expertise includes production technologies for bio-based raw materials, the use of side and waste streams, and application development enabled by modern biotechnology. We work with the food, materials and energy industries. Long-term research and fast-track practical projects help companies to move forward with product development.
We believe that the transformation of the bioeconomy and circular economy will come from the use and development of digital technologies. We generate research-based knowledge on sustainable solutions and create new business opportunities from the early stages of production to finished products and consumers. At the core of our operations are the expertise of HAMK’s specialists in different fields and the needs of industry and society.
Come and do research with us. You’re here to make a change.
