It encompasses all activities that aim to convert organic matter\u2014of plant or animal origin\u2014into materials, molecules, or energy. In Fribourg, this ambition is embodied by both established companies and innovative startups such as Bloom Biorenewables and Seprify, supported by cutting-edge infrastructure and a strong ecosystem for applied research, incubation, and industrialization.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Swiss First, Applauded by the Organizers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAfter France, Canada, and Belgium, it\u2019s a real pleasure for us to bring BIOKET to Switzerland\u2014 and especially to Fribourg,\u201d says Johan De Coninck, Director of Connexions &amp; International at BIOKET. \u201cThe canton played a particularly active role during the last editions in Reims and Brussels, with a highly engaged and well-prepared delegation.
