Mission Statement

At the Cluster of Excellence Circular Bioengineering, our mission is to drive a paradigm shift in how goods are produced, consumed, and renewed. By harnessing cutting-edge research in molecular biosciences and biotechnology, we design and engineer bio-based materials that are sustainable, efficient, and waste-free. Our unique, cross-disciplinary approach integrates technological advances with rigorous environmental, economic, and societal assessments to pioneer a new era of circular bioeconomy—pushing the boundaries towards a fossil fuel-free world.

Funded by the "excellent=austria" program, this initiative unites leading research institutions across Austria to create transformative, sustainable solutions. Through our work, we engage with the public and key stakeholders, inspiring a future where science, sustainability, and innovation converge for the benefit of all.
