Wild Microbes
Wild Microbes is a synthetic biology company dedicated to unleashing the power of microbes to create sustainable products. They source diverse, wild microbes from various biomes and use proprietary technology to develop these microbes for biomanufacturing. Their mission is to build a sustainable economy with green, renewable inputs by turning microbes into production factories for chemicals, cosmetics, food ingredients, and fragrances. They aim to reduce costs and risks in biomanufacturing and explore new categories like sustainable chemicals and renewable feedstocks.
