Objective
Alkion, a revolutionary biotech company, is developing a breakthrough biorefinery to produce top quality active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) and extracts in plants in a sustainable and cost-effective way. Our core technology combines our disruptive patented automated bioreactor-AlkaBurst2.0 with unique knowhow on gene expression methods, culture media and extraction. Our process offers high productivity and a low carbon footprint.The pharma industry is carbon intensive with recurring problems of quality & safety. Moreover, many critical APIs are outsourced to Asia to cut costs. AlkaBurst2.0 allows a local standardised production of safe & clean APIs in its automated process saving 75% time, 80% space, 95% electricity, 98% water.We first validated the production for Covid-19 natural vaccine adjuvants QS21/7, cannabinoids & certain recombinant proteins for the urgent market demand. We need 7.5M to build & validate our pilot and expect to generate 125M revenue by 2028 with 105 job
