Today, we are thrilled to announce a strategic joint venture that will accelerate bioproduct innovation and commercialization. Synonym and Primient have partnered to propel the bioeconomy forward. By combining forces – Synonym's expertise in data-driven biomanufacturing infrastructure with Primient's century-long leadership in operations and renewable, plant-based ingredients – we're fast-tracking the development and scale-up of next-gen bioproducts. This collaboration marks a significant step forward in advancing the US bioeconomy, providing the infrastructure and support companies need to bring next-gen bioproducts to market. Our first project, iPROOF, based at Primient’s Decatur, IL facility, will focus on re-commissioning and upgrading existing fermentation assets and expanding current capacity to demonstration scale. This project is part of the U.S. Economic Development Administration (EDA)’s recent $51 million grant to the iFAB Tech Hub, which supports advancements in precision fermentation and biomanufacturing. The joint facility will offer comprehensive wrap-around services for companies using precision fermentation to prove out concepts through to commercial scale.
