Novonesis, a leading biosolutions company, co-hosted the “Unlocking Value for a Sustainable Future” Partnering Day 2025 in Singapore on 7 May. The event, in collaboration with Novo Holdings and Flagship Pioneering, aimed to explore the potential of biosolutions in transforming agriculture and food systems amidst growing global sustainability challenges.
The gathering brought together leaders from food, agribusiness, and waste management sectors to discuss resource optimisation and the scaling of innovative biosolutions. Investors identified high-growth opportunities in biosolutions and circular economy models, which are crucial for sustainable business impact. The event showcased real-world advances, such as waste valorisation and resource optimisation, highlighting the transformative potential of biosolutions.
Rasmus Bjørnø, Deputy Head of Mission at the Royal Danish Embassy in Singapore, opened the event, followed by a keynote from Anders Spohr, Managing Partner at Novo Holdings. Spohr emphasised the strategic role of biosolutions in reshaping agriculture and food systems. Lensey Chen, APAC President of Novonesis, noted, “Our portfolio of biosolutions is the market’s broadest and can be used to expand operations through greater flexibility.”
The event underscored the importance of partnerships in accelerating the biorevolution. Deepa Hingorani, Partner at Novo Holdings, remarked, “The bioeconomy holds exponential potential, and we see partnerships as essential to unlocking it.”
Novonesis, formed in 2024 through the merger of Novozymes and Chr. Hansen, continues to drive impact through innovation and collaboration, advancing biosolutions across various industries.
