5. Welcome
This directory is designed
to foster business driven
R&D partnerships within
industrial biotechology. It
has been inspired by the
"Memorandum of
Understanding", signed by
the UK and Norwegian
innovation agencies in
2011, outlining a series of
activities to be undertaken
on industrial biotechnology
and biorefining.
Industrial biotechnology is the use of
biologically-based technologies, such
as fermentation or biocatalysis, to
develop new and more efficient and
sustainable methods of producing
energy, chemicals and materials.
Biorefining is the identification,
extraction and modification of valuable
components from a biobased feedstock
to support the biotechnology process.
The UK-Norway partnership has so far
led to eight co-funded projects and a
variety of other shared activities. With
the formation of the Norwegian

7. About the UK-Norway
agreement
On the 23rd February 2011,
Innovation Norway and the
Technology Strategy Board
signed a memorandum of
understanding to
collaborate on a number of
activities focusing on
industrial biotechnology
and biorefining. These
technologies underpin the
bioeconomy, which in
Europe has a market size
of €2 trillion and employs
21.5 million people.
Investment in these
technologies could help to
meet the increasing
demand for a sustainable
supply of food, industrial
products and fuels. Both
organisations believe that
through joint activities,
such as knowledge
exchange and innovation
projects, they will generate
future economic growth.
During the last two
years, the
partnership has:
• commissioned
research to map
UK-Norway
opportunities
• contributed or
commissioned five
technical reports
• committed
investment of over
€2m into eight
joint projects.
The project participants include seven
UK companies, eight Norwegian
companies and one UK university. Two
projects will be launching products this
year.
In addition, the partnership: has
• contributed content to over 20 events
• 100 individuals and organisations
registered in online networks
• encouraged closer co-operation
between its countries’ research and
technology organisations.

8. Technology Strategy Board
The Technology Strategy
Board is the UK’s
innovation agency. Our goal
is to help accelerate
economic growth by
stimulating and supporting
business-led innovation.
Our programme and
support for business
innovation are a key part of
the Government’s industrial
strategy. Our work in
priority areas and our
support for business
innovation are key parts of
our strategy. We helped to
identify the ‘eight great
technologies’ at the heart of
the UK’s push for growth.
We are setting up seven new Catapult
technology and innovation centres, and
all will be operational this year. They will
provide a powerful new force for
innovation in the UK. The High Value
Manufacturing Catapult hosts the
National Industrial Biotechnology Facility.
Our view extends far beyond the UK to
European and global opportunities which
includes launching joint programmes
with the key emerging economies of
India and China. Everything we do is
driven by the desire to help UK business
bring new ideas and technologies to
market.
The Technology Strategy Board builds
strategic partnerships with key
organisations. It connects and creates
engagement between people and
organisations, which might not normally
work together, and acts as a catalyst to
enable developments that otherwise
would not take place. The agreement
with Innovation Norway is the first
bilateral with another innovation agency
but follows other UK-based partnerships.
In 2013, it announced its partnership with
BBSRC on an Industrial Biotechnology
Catalyst.
Our strategy for business innovation
Concept to Commercialisation has five
key aims:
• Accelerating the journey between
concept and commercialisation
• Connecting the innovation-support
landscape
• Turning government action into
business opportunity
• Investing in priority theme areas
based on potential
• Continuously improving our
capability.
Our 2012 ‘Biosciences’ strategy focused
on the following priority areas: genomics,
industrial biotechnology, agriculture and
food. Industrial biotechnology,
encompassing biorefining, offers the
opportunity for more efficient chemical
processes and the generation of
sustainable energy and materials. Over
55 industrial-biotechnology using
projects have been funded through a
series of ‘high-value chemicals’
competitions, which were initiated in
2009. These projects are in addition to
others funded through some of our other
programmes such as Smart, Knowledge
Transfer Partnerships and ERANETs.
Our ‘Enabling Technologies’ strategy will
focus biosciences investment in three
areas: characterisation and discovery
tools, production and processing and
bioinformatics. Our current ‘High Value
Manufacturing’ strategy identifies 22
national competencies for investment
including biotech, biological and
synthetic biology. Through
implementation of these strategies, the
Technology Strategy Board hopes to
generate wealth-creating, innovative
projects in the future.

10. Biosciences
Knowledge Transfer Network
Knowledge sharing and
open innovation help
companies engage with the
ideas and opportunities
around them. This is the
purpose of the 15 businessled KTNs, which have more
than 30,000 individual
members. In 2010, the
Technology Strategy Board
created an online
collaboration and social
networking tool, _connect,
which hosts the KTNs
together with many other
groups.
10
KTNs are a dynamic resource for
individuals to enable business innovation
by sharing knowledge, ideas and
opportunities within and between specific
sectors. One of these is the Biosciences
Knowledge Transfer Network which
drives the conversion of the United
Kingdom’s bioscience knowledge into
innovative agricultural, food and
industrial bioscience products and
processes for the benefit of business, the
economy, the environment and society.
The KTN serves four identified market
sectors:
• Industrial bioscience
• Animal breeding and animal health
• Plant breeding and crop protection
• Food technology and manufacture
Biosciences KTN puts companies and
innovators in contact with the funding
and knowledge that they need to bring
new products and processes to market.
Our aim is to connect and catalyse by:
• Driving knowledge transfer between
the science base and industry
• Creating networking opportunities
and stimulating innovation key to our
industry sectors
• Providing a coherent voice for
industry to inform government policy.
The Biosciences KTN can help
innovation by integrating academic,
industrial and business communities
within and across sectors that may not
have previously interacted closely. We
combine the knowledge and expertise of
all stakeholders, offering new
opportunities for business or research
enhancement.
Biosciences KTN can:
• Provide access to and advice on
funding and collaboration
opportunities
• Mentor funding applications
• Help build partnerships and identify
new business opportunities
• Provide free access on latest
developments, events and funding
opportunities through our online
_connect website
(www.innovate.org/biosciencesktn)
Hosted by the KTNs, there are also
Special Interest Groups (SIGs) created to
work across KTNs on specific tasks. One
of these is the Industrial Biotechnology
SIG (IB-SIG). Set-up 3 years ago, its
purpose is to encourage UK industry to
utilise industrial biotechnology to create
chemicals more efficiently and
sustainably. This has been achieved
under strategic direction from the
Industrial Biotechnology Leadership
Forum and on-the-ground has visited
over 100 companies across the country.
Several of these have proceeded to test
the feasibility of using industrial
biotechnology in their current work.
11.
12. Innovation Norway –
connecting, informing and funding
Innovation Norway
connects people,
businesses and
communities across
borders. Our key objectives
are to nurture business
innovation and
entrepreneurship, foster
regional development,
international cooperation
and market access. We
build local business
networks in key markets
through our more than
thirty offices around the
globe.
12
Innovation Norway is the main
government agency for industry
development, with close to 800
employees and about €800 million in
grants and loans under management. In
addition to its international offices, the
organisation has business units in all
Norwegian counties, which provides a
unique knowledge of Norwegian
companies in all sectors.
Innovation Norway acts as an advisor to
the Government on industry policy in
close co-operation with the Norwegian
Research Council. For instance, both
organisations were strongly involved in
preparation of the Government’s white
paper on biotechnology, which was
published in December 2011.
Based on the recommendations drawn
up in the national biotech strategy,
Innovation Norway has recently launched
a new program to support the emerging
bioeconomy. This initiative has several
measures, with the key objective to
stimulate innovation and investments into
sustainable production of high value
products.
We support projects along the whole
value chain from market investigations,
technical feasibility and scaling up of
novel processes. In 2013 we aim to
invest about €8,5 million in industrial
biotechnology and biorefining, a figure
we hope to gradually increase in future
years.
It is our ambition to help Norwegian
companies become leaders in the use of
renewable resources, e.g. efficient value
creation from wood or marine derived
biomass, areas where Norway by
tradition is strong. We firmly believe,
however, that cooperation is crucial,
particularly with respect to progressing
the bioeconomy. Establishing the
Norwegian Industrial Biotech Network
and seeking a partnership with the UK,
illustrate our emphasis on connecting
people. It is people who run businesses.
We hope that this directory will foster
new business collaborations across the
North Sea.
13.
14. Norwegian Industrial
Biotechnology Network
Growth of the bioeconomy
depends on the interplay
between renewable
feedstock, new technology
and emerging markets. The
Norwegian Network for
Industrial Biotechology
connects business and
knowledge across sectors
and geography. The
network’s focus is on
biotechnology in
conversion, valorization and
manufacturing processes
based on raw materials
from agriculture, forestry
and the marine sector. The
overarching mission is to
create value for society
through economic growth,
as well as a more
sustainable industry.
14
The activities reflect four strategic
objectives:
• Facilitate cross-sectorial and
multidisciplinary networking
• Identify and communicate market
opportunities
• Promote investments by competent
capital
• Increase awareness of industrial
biotechnology in society
We organise seminars, workshops and
study tours in order to disseminate
knowledge, alone or in cooperation with
partner organisations or Government
agencies. We communicate business
news, market information, new grant
programs and help the grant providing
agencies identifying new projects.
Norwegian Industrial Biotechnology
Network was established in 2011 and
has currently over 50 institutional
members. These members include
companies from all relevant sectors, as
well as the most prominent research
organisations in Norway. Our website
offers a gateway to the Norwegian
biotech industry, providing a
comprehensive list of relevant
companies, members as well as nonmembers. www.indbiotech.no
We respond to international enquiries
and help companies in their search for
business partners. We also make
connections to academic centres of
excellence and Government support
agencies, such as Innovation Norway,
The Norwegian Research Council or
Invest in Norway. Our office address is in
the city of Trondheim, centrally located in
Norway and home to the Norwegian
University of Science and Technology, as
well as several large RTOs.
