As a startup, disruption in government services has been tough. Uninterrupted government services are vital for a thriving nation, our national security and food security.

Here's a closer look at how we've had to navigate the chaos ➡️ bit.ly/48JexbK

Dr. Kaplan had a great pitch session at Pitch Perfect! There were many #cropprotection startups and they are using fermentation in bioreactors to manufacture their products. Great that Europe has lots of #biomanufacturing facilities and pilot facilities to scale up manufacturing.
