This $1 Billion Startup Backed By Bill Gates Prints New DNA
Forget your smartphone, the coolest piece of technology in your home might be a houseplant.
That's according to Reshma Shetty, the COO and co-founder of Ginkgo Bioworks, a Boston-based biotech startup that bills itself as "the organism company." Founded in 2009 by a group of MIT scientists, and recently named to the 2018 CNBC Disruptor 50 List, Ginkgo uses genetic engineering to design and print new DNA for a variety of organisms that can then be used for anything from killing antibiotic-resistant germs to producing artificial sweetener and cheaper perfume.

Startup DNA - turn your idea into a prototype!
90% of new startups fail. Why is this percentage so high? Startup founders have to face a lot of challenges at the very beginning of their journey.
Some of them need to validate their idea, others have already done it but have nothing to show for it. Some entrepreneurs already have prototypes but struggle with pitching investors.
We know exactly how it works - over the years, we helped dozens of founders validate their ideas and crafted hundreds of web and mobile apps. That’s why we decided to create a solution that will help early-stage founders build a strong brand and wow investors.
It’s called Startup DNA. This proposition is created by Merixstudio’s team of developers and designers. See what you can get with it: http://bit.ly/3nvsfW8

What is Startup Scale-Up DNA?
There are 5 measurements to test early on to see if a startup will be able to scale; only 0.4% of startups ever scale. Kimberly Ofori, a serial entrepreneur and the Founder of Growth Lab, teaches what those 5 criteria are in this clip from the webinar "How to Scale Your Early-Stage Startup During COVID-19" (more at https://fi.co/insight/learn-how-to-scale-your-early-stage-startup-during-covid-19-with-kimberly-ofori).

23andMe ft. Anne Wojcicki - How a DNA startup took on the FDA and redefined health tech
Millions of customers have explored their genome with 23andMe. But when the company started in 2006, the idea of consumer DNA testing was heresy to the medical establishment. The FDA even ordered 23andMe to stop selling its health testing product. The company persevered to make allies out of adversaries, and became the only FDA-approved product on the market. Learn how 23andMe defined the DNA testing category, how it found product-market fit, and used its growing scale to enter the massive new field of drug discovery.

Japan startup develops a giant human-piloted robot | World DNA | Latest News | WION
Over the last 24 months, Tsubame Industries has been working on a four-wheeled, 4.5-meter (14.8-foot) tall robot that bears a little similarity to "Mobile Suit Gundam" from the immensely popular Japanese animation series. The robot is scheduled to make its debut at the Japan Mobility Show in late October. Afterwards, Tsubame Industries intends to sell the robot in five units for a total of 400 million yen ($2.7 million) apiece. The robot, named ARCHAX after the bird-like dinosaur Archaeopteryx, is equipped with cockpit monitors that project pictures from external cameras. This allows the pilot to control the robot's hands and arms using joysticks from inside its body.

Forget your smartphone, the coolest piece of technology in your home might be a houseplant.
That's according to Reshma Shetty, the COO and co-founder of Ginkgo Bioworks, a Boston-based biotech startup that bills itself as "the organism company." Founded in 2009 by a group of MIT scientists, and recently named to the 2018 CNBC Disruptor 50 List, Ginkgo uses genetic engineering to design and print new DNA for a variety of organisms that can then be used for anything from killing antibiotic-resistant germs to producing artificial sweetener and cheaper perfume.
» Subscribe to CNBC Make It.: http://cnb.cx/2kxl2rf
"Plants can self repair, they can self replicate, and they're totally renewable," says Shetty. "What we're excited about is being able to design biology — design microbes, design plants — to be able to do what we want."
Ginkgo's ability to essentially reprogram the DNA of plants and other organisms is what makes the company so valuable, both in its work and as a business. Large companies pay Ginkgo to develop genetically-modified organisms that make all manner of products cheaper and easier to produce.
In 2017, pharmaceutical company Bayer joined Ginkgo for a $100 million partnership aimed at synthesizing microbes that would allow staple crops like corn, wheat and rice to produce their own fertilizer. By doing that, they have the potential to disrupt the $250 billion global fertilizer market by replacing chemical fertilizers with a cheaper, more environmentally-friendly solution. (The production of nitrogen fertilizers normally used on such crops accounts for roughly 3 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions, Ginkgo says.)
Of course, this puts Ginkgo's work in the middle of the ongoing debate over genetically-modified foods, or GMO foods, which have the potential to make food cheaper for consumers while feeding more people, but which detractors argue can have negative effects on the environment and on consumers' health.
Ginkgo also genetically-engineers yeast to make rose-scented oil that smells like the real thing but costs perfume companies (like France's Robertet, a Ginkgo partner) less than using actual roses and produces more consistent scents. It's the first new rose oil on the market in 150 years, according to Fortune.
With yeast Ginkgo also makes artificial sweeteners for food, which are cheaper and easier to make than those derived from sources like Stevia leaves. And Ginkgo works with the US Department of Defense to custom-design bacteria for probiotics that can treat antibiotic-resistant germs.
Thanks to its ground-breaking synthetic biology projects, the company is reportedly valued at more than $1 billion after raising over $429 million in total funding from its investors, who include Cascade Investment, the investment firm owned by Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates.
But it took Ginkgo nearly a decade to get to that point.
Shetty and three of her co-founders — CEO Jason Kelly, Barry Canton, and Austin Che — each obtained a Ph.D. from MIT in 2008 and were working with professor Tom Knight (also a co-founder) on synthetic biology research projects when the group decided the best way to keep their work going beyond their Ph.D. research was to launch their own company.
The group formed Ginkgo in 2009 and spent the next several years surviving off of government research grants as they fine-tuned their process of genetically engineering microbes, including building automated tools that the company uses to collect genetic information from organisms, transform cells and rewrite DNA.
This was in the early days of the financial crisis and Ginkgo had no luck attracting outside investors. Money was sometimes tight, and so the co-founders improvised. For pennies on the dollar, Ginkgo bought the incredibly expensive equipment it needed from other biotech firms that had gone out of business due to the economic downturn.
"We put together our first lab for about $150,000, which is roughly 10 to 100 [times] cheaper than what most to biology labs get built for."

Over the last 24 months, Tsubame Industries has been working on a four-wheeled, 4.5-meter (14.8-foot) tall robot that bears a little similarity to "Mobile Suit Gundam" from the immensely popular Japanese animation series. The robot is scheduled to make its debut at the Japan Mobility Show in late October. Afterwards, Tsubame Industries intends to sell the robot in five units for a total of 400 million yen ($2.7 million) apiece. The robot, named ARCHAX after the bird-like dinosaur Archaeopteryx, is equipped with cockpit monitors that project pictures from external cameras. This allows the pilot to control the robot's hands and arms using joysticks from inside its body.
