Toulouse White Biotechnology (TWB) is a pre-industrial demonstrator which facilitates the interface between companies and academics, offering R&D projects from laboratory research to pilot scale (biocatalysis, synthetic biology, process engineering), in the field of biomaterials, chemicals and biofuels. TWB is an administrative body supported by French National Institute of Agronomy (INRA) with an association agreement National Institute of Applied Sciences (INSA Toulouse) and Scientific Research National Center (CNRS). The activities foster the creation and design of biological tools (enzymes, microorganisms, microbial consortia) for use in industrial processes. TWB offers collaborative public / private R&D projects and services. The projects are based on a continuum of expertise: from research and proof of concept to pre-industrial development and industrial technology transfer including business creation. The expertise covers a broad scope of industrial biotechnology: enzyme engineering, synthetic biology, metabolic engineering, fermentation, separation and purification processes and state-of-the-art analytical techniques. TWB expertise mainly lies on using microorganisms (bacteria, yeasts, filamentous fungi) and enzymes as main biological tools. Other tools are conceivable and projects implementing protozoa or micro-algae have already been conducted. TWB has an original international private/public consortium with 53 partners on 1 January 2017. TWB partners share socio-economic objectives linked to industrial biotechnology and they take advantage of synergies within the network.
