Entrepreneurship in iGEM is about creating a new industry in Synthetic Biology, where the biological cell is the underlying technological platform. As with any new industry, it is not clear which business plans will be the most successful.

Online registration for the iGEM 2012 Entrepreneurship Competition will be opening soon.

Any questions can be directed to iGEM Headquarters (hq AT igem.org) or Jose J. Pacheco (jose AT igem.org).
