PRESENTING COMPANIES
INNOVATION

Launch of a multifunctional preservative booster, CuraVia.

 CuraVia™ is a multifunctional preservation booster with skin conditioning properties. It can be used to reduce levels of traditional preservatives, or as an alternative to traditional preservatives to enable preservative-free claims for cosmetic products.

Ourobio is a young synthetic biology, biomaterials, and circular economy company. We develop engineered microorganisms to turn industrial byproducts into low-footprint, bio-based biodegradable plastic resins and additives, and we are working with our partners to develop PHA-based bioplastic blends and products. We would like to lead a discussion around Ourobio, our traction, and our partnerships in hopes of finding new collaborators and inspiring a model for others to follow!

Digital Tools for Substance of Concern: Developing and Deploying a digital tool to ideate on safer materials for Formulation Additives and Catalysis

We have developed a new version of our surfactant ingredient technology which is based on soybean or algae oil, thereby reducing the GHG emissions associated with conventional petrochemical or palm oil-based surfactants.
