In a world marked by the climate crisis, resource scarcity and a growing population, the need to produce more with less impact on nature and climate has never been greater. This is where biosolutions comes in. By combining biology and technology, biosolutions can contribute to a greener and more sustainable world.

From road construction and textile management to the food and feed industries, biosolutions have industry-wide impact and even greater untapped potential. The innovative and sustainable approach to production offers a vast range of benefits – such as potentially reducing global CO2-emissions by eight percent and significantly mitigate climate change.

Biosolutions not only contribute to emissions reduction but also support broader environmental goals, such as enhancing biodiversity, reducing resource consumption and fostering a circular economy.

Denmark is a frontrunner in the field, and we have some of the world’s leading biosolutions companies as well as the best conditions for start-ups and best-in-class research communities.

We pride ourselves with offering some of the best conditions for the industry and for fostering new ideas.

Under the lighthouse project Biosolutions Zealand, we have established testing, demonstration and development facilities which makes it easier for companies to develop and scale their products and solutions.

Denmark’s strong tradition of public-private climate action has enabled our start-ups, universities and biotech businesses to make global impact through cutting-edge research, innovation and technology development.

With the EU presidency in 2025, Denmark is especially well-positioned to spearhead initiatives that bring public and private stakeholders together in global climate action.

We are not alone in recognising the strategic importance of biosolutions. The European Commission has identified biotechnology as a critical technology for European economic security, and it is one of three technologies prioritised in the Strategic Technologies for Europe Platform (STEP) regulation. Similarly, the Net Zero Industry Act (NZIA) recognised biotech as an important technology contributing to the EU’s resilience and decarbonisation objectives.

In the publication “Biosolutions – creating climate impact with nature’s own toolbox”, you will be introduced to Danish companies and initiatives in the biosolutions industry. You will also be inspired by Danish companies ready to share their expertise and be presented with concrete solutions to some of the biggest challenges that the world is facing.

Enjoy the read.
