Biodesign Challenge Summit 2021

The world is in dire need of good design that benefits both people and the planet. High school and university students around the world have spent their semesters creating projects that use art, design, and biology to create a more sustainable and equitable future.

Students will present their innovative ideas at the online Biodesign Challenge Summit 2021, June 21-25. Projects use the tools of biotechnology to reimagine medicine, fashion, architecture, food, bioethics and more.

This year, 53 finalist teams will showcase their projects before an esteemed panel of 60+ judges from academia, the arts, and industry, and audiences from around the world. Only one team will be awarded the Glass Microbe, a unique glass trophy that is passed between each year’s winning teams. Register to see their ideas, June 21-25 at BDC Summit 2021.
