1 ROLE OF SME IN CATALYZING BIOECONOMY BIO-BASED INDUSTRIES INFO DAY April 25 th MATTI HEIKKILÄ & LAURA KOPONEN

2 OUR MISSION EMPOWERING INDUSTRIES TO ENHANCE VALUE OF BIOMASS

3 METGEN STRATEGIC FOCUS Lignocellulosic biomass conversion in multiple segments PULP AND PAPER VOLUME OF CELLULOSIC BIOMASS Packaging, Tissue, Paper RENEWABLE CHEMICALS Biobased plastics BIOFUELS & ENERGY Energy & Liquid fuels BIOMATERIALS Nanocellulose Lignin-based polymers WASTE WATER & SIDE STREAMS Clean water, biogas & Chemical building blocks

4 ENZINE TECHNOLOGY PLATFORM STRONG CHAIN OF COMPETENCE FAST: Industry leading short development cycle FLEXIBLE: Tailored enzyme design approach to meet challenging industrial conditions ADAPTABLE: Can produce large amounts of different enzymes, costeffectively and supply globally Industrial supply of enzyme Technical support Unique Combination Identified Customer Challenge Designing, cloning and screening PROVEN: Developed several novel enzymes from concept to validation at industrial scale and production Piloting and scale-up Application testing

5 METZYMES COVER THE FULL VALUE-CHAIN IN BIOPROCESSING Side-streams and environment Hydrolysis and Fractionation Utilization of sugars Further Conversions Substrate Unique feedstock and pretreatment combinations Sugar platform Fermentation Chemical building blocks Water & biogas Tailored enzymatic solutions are a MUST for processing biomass High Yields Affordable sugars High dry-solid % Lower capex Less inhibitors High efficiency Higher carbon yield Furans and aromatics Lignin-based materials Platform sugars Streamlined processes Less COD & waste Efficient processes Neutralizing toxins LIGNO SUNO PURECO FORICO FORCI

6 ON-GOING H2020 DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS 36 PARTNERS IN 6 EU PROJECTS WITH TOTAL OF 36.3 M METGEN S TOTAL EU PROJECT FINANCING: 4.6 M RAW MATERIAL WOOD FORESTRY FEEDSTOCKS LIGNIN BIOWASTE AGRICULTURAL RESIDUE EU CONTRIBUTION 1,1 M 0,6 M 0,6 M 0,5 M 0,4 M PROJECT OBJECTIVE RENEWABLE PLASTIC CHEMICAL BUILDING BLOCKS MARINE DIESEL SUGAR PLATFORM JETFUEL

7 HOW TO GET THE GRANTS? ARE YOU READY? Learn about the instruments Know what you want Have a solid business plan Crystallize and validate your creative idea in its simplest form Saving the world is great but you ll be judged on capability to commercialize and exploit your idea: Excellence Impact Exploitation and dissemination Use experts to help you with the writing & technicalities

8 START DATING! Partner up / network / make friends / be everywhere! Be active in building new value-chains - Listen, learn and adapt Geography is important. Meanwhile keep your business in good shape Do your home work before attending events, check who is coming and try to set up one-to-one meetings during an event Your job is to convey the message. Be passionate! First impression means a lot. Always follow-up

9 TEAM IS THE KEY YOUR OWN & THE PROJECT CONSORTIUM First 4-5 hires are critical. There is going to be intensive communication between team members Cultural fit is the key Fill only critical positions outsource the rest Make sure you have great wingmen Team work & shared vision Always share and talk about big picture it inspires the passion

10 NEXT: COMMERCIAL SCALE & INTEGRATION Material produced in modern biorefinery

11 CATALYZING THE BIO-BASED INDUSTRY PROJECTS VALUE-CHAINS NEW PRODUCTS PARTNERS M PROJECT FUNDING B MARKET

12 About Spinverse Innovation for growth and a sustainable world We are the Nordic leader in innovation consulting, specialised in open innovation, arranging funding and commercialisation of emerging technologies. We believe in innovative solutions in industries such as health, electronics, ICT & security, bioeconomy & renewables, manufacturing and energy to tackle the major global challenges Established 1.2 B Large scale Innovation Programs coordinated 250 M EU funding for our customers 100+ Start-ups and jobs created 50+ Team of Experts in our offices in Helsinki, Berlin, Stockholm

13 Why open innovation: Added value for your customers. Open innovation Closed innovation Collaborative innovation Ecosystem innovation In-house innovation Innovation partnership Innovation value-chains Innovation ecosystems Internal focused R&D teams: consensus or authority based hierarchy Bilateral focus Management of relationship Can be win-win, mostly subcontracting Multiple actors benefiting each other: win-win Facilitation and coaching One product solution focus Bigger ecosystem Involving end-users, governments Solving bigger problems. Joint vision. Win-more together Few Number of innovators Many Low Degree of openness High Adopted from: Mika Westerlund, Risto Rajala, Martin Curley

14 Bio-based industries value chains BBI JU value chains represent 3.7 million jobs* and 698 bn turnover* but are extremely fragmented between actors and across geographies *Based on EUROSTAT figures 2015

15 Example of a value-chain: Industrial scale, cost-effective FDCA biorefinery flagship plant BBI JU Funding 25M Technology & Processing End products Raw materials Plastic conversion LCA, dissemination and coordination
