"The recent advances in synthetic biology have enabled the creation of functional, sustainable and high-performance materials unlike anything we have seen before," said Klein. "AMSilk’s silk biopolymers are just one example of such materials, and can already be found in a number of trailblazing products around the globe. It is a great pleasure to speak at SynBioBeta and present AMSilk’s products and R&D results on an international level. To bring together so many industry pioneers and innovative companies at one place is remarkable and very inspiring."

More than 60 industry leaders are expected at the conference that will bring together entrepreneurs, investors and industry experts to drive the synthetic biology industry forward. The leaders will discuss the responsible growth of synthetic biology, with featured presentations by molecular biologist and genetics pioneer George Church, the entrepreneur and venture capitalist Vinod Khosla and the medical and biology engineer James Collins, one of the founders of synthetic biology.
