Bio × Tech × Fashion：未来的材料，是被“长”出来的。
如果说过去十年最性感的故事是 AI 和软件，那么下一个十年，可能藏在一个更不被注意的地方——材料。
你穿在身上的鞋、拎在手上的包、坐着的沙发、看见的空间，全都依赖一套上百年没怎么换过的材料系统。皮革、塑料、合成革……我们已经习惯了它们的样子，也默认了它们背后的代价。
但有一群年轻人，正在用菌株、发酵罐、微藻和涂层工艺，把“材料”这件事重新写一遍。
5 月 20 日下午，绿色制造日 × SynMetabio 贻如生物专场，我们邀请这家从上海科技大学和 iGEM 走出来的年轻硬科技公司，现场拆解一个核心问题：
当合成生物学遇见时尚和制造，会发生什么？
这不是一场传统企业介绍，不是一场泛泛而谈的 ESG 讲座，也不是一场堆满概念的可持续秀。它更像一次开放的创业现场：把菌株、样品、工厂、品牌合作和真实问题，全部摆到桌面上，让你近距离看清下一代材料是怎么诞生的。
🧬 合成生物学如何变成一家公司？
🏭 一块“长”出来的材料，如何进入鞋服、包袋和空间设计？
👟 ANTA、设计师品牌和酒店空间，为什么开始关注菌丝皮革和生物基材料？
🚀 年轻创业者要不要押注硬科技、材料和制造？
🌍 中国的合成生物 + 制造能力，能不能走出一个全球化新材料品牌？
如果你正在创业、关注未来产业，或者只是单纯想被新东西刺激一下——欢迎来现场坐坐。
🔥 为什么这场你不该错过
因为它把三件原本不太说话的事情放在了同一个房间里：
科技： 合成生物学、菌株工程、精密发酵、材料工艺
时尚： 鞋服、包袋、设计师合作、品牌叙事
制造： 从实验室样品到工厂产线，从中国供应链到国际市场
SynMetabio 的故事很特别：它不是从“做品牌”开始，而是从一次 iGEM 比赛、一群年轻研究者、一台发酵罐开始。等他们抬起头时，作品已经被 ANTA × Kris Van Assche 带到巴黎 Dover Street Market 的全球首发现场。
你将看到一个非常稀缺的中国新一代创业样本：
从校园到公司：iGEM 金奖团队如何转身做创业
从实验室到工厂：一块菌丝皮革如何走完发酵、复合、涂层和量产
从材料到秀场：生物基材料如何成为设计师、品牌和消费者愿意买单的“新奢侈”
从中国到世界：中国速度、中国供应链如何变成新材料公司的护城河
从理想到证据：用样品、测试、案例和现场答辩，而不是 PPT 和大词，去回答“可持续”到底意味着什么
这场分享，是为正在思考“下一个十年我要做什么”的人准备的。

Bio × Tech × Fashion: the future material is grown, not just made.
If the last decade belonged to AI and software, the next one might quietly belong to something far less obvious — materials.
The shoes you wear, the bag you carry, the sofa you sit on, the spaces you walk through — they all rely on a material system that has barely changed in a hundred years. Leather, plastic, synthetic leather… we have learned to live with them, and to ignore the cost behind them.
But a group of young founders is rewriting that story — using strains, fermenters, microalgae, and coating chemistry, they are turning microbes into the next generation of materials.
On the afternoon of May 20, Green Manufacturing Day × SynMetabio brings this young hard-tech company — born out of ShanghaiTech University and iGEM — onto our stage to unpack one big question:
What happens when synthetic biology meets fashion and manufacturing?
This is not a corporate intro. Not a generic ESG talk. Not a buzzword-loaded sustainability show. It is more like a live backstage session, where strains, samples, factories, brand collaborations, and tough questions are all on the table.
🧬 How does synthetic biology become a real company?
🏭 How does a “grown” material end up in shoes, bags, and interior spaces?
👟 Why are ANTA, designer brands, and hotels starting to embrace mycelium leather and bio-based materials?
🚀 Should young founders bet on hard tech, materials, and manufacturing?
🌍 Can China’s synthetic biology + manufacturing capability create the next global material brand?
If you are building, planning to build, or simply curious about what the next generation of companies might look like — come sit with us.
🔥 Why this session is worth your afternoon
Because it brings three worlds that rarely share the same room:
Tech: synthetic biology, strain engineering, precision fermentation, material processing
Fashion: footwear, bags, designer collaborations, brand storytelling
Manufacturing: from lab samples to factory lines, from China’s supply chain to global markets
SynMetabio’s story is unusual: it didn’t start with “let’s build a brand.” It started with an iGEM competition, a group of young researchers, and a fermenter. By the time they looked up, their material had already walked into the ANTAZERO × Kris Van Assche global debut at Dover Street Market Paris.
You will get a rare look at a new kind of Chinese startup:
From campus to company: an iGEM gold-medal team becoming founders
From lab to factory: a piece of mycelium leather moving through fermentation, compounding, coating, and scale-up
From material to runway: bio-based materials becoming a “new luxury” designers and brands actually want
From China to the world: China’s speed and supply chain as a moat for next-gen material companies
From ideals to evidence: answering “sustainability” with samples, tests, and real cases — not slogans
This session is for people thinking about what they want to build in the next decade.
✨ What you will see on site

🚀 Young founders / soon-to-be founders
You don’t want to only ride the AI wave. You want to know whether the next decade has a seat at the table for you in materials, manufacturing, biotech, and supply chain.
🧪 Synthetic biology & hard-tech enthusiasts
You are tired of “great tech, no traction” stories. You want to see a real case where the fermenter, the production line, and the brand actually connect.
👗 Fashion, footwear, and consumer-product professionals
You care about story, design, and sustainability — and want to know if next-gen materials can become the foundation of the next great brand.
🎨 Designers, brand founders, and space creators
You want material partners with both future-facing narratives and real supply capability.
💼 Investors & industry observers
You track Chinese hard-tech + manufacturing + globalization companies, and want a close look at material-startup progress.
✨ Anyone excited about what’s next
You may not be deep in biology or fashion, but you want to see what happens when tech and fashion meet in China.
💡 What you will leave with
A more concrete vision of the future: future companies live not only in screens, but in cells, materials, factories, and runways
A tech × fashion crossover lens: how technology becomes a sample, and a sample becomes a brand story
A bio-based materials map: how strains, fermentation, compounding, coating, testing, and applications connect
A real material experience: see and feel bio-based and mycelium-related materials up close
A high-density Q&A: ask the team directly about cost, performance, scale, brand collaboration, and sustainability framing
A possible shift in your startup radar: rethink China’s position in green manufacturing, bio-manufacturing, and next-gen materials
