Bio-Hack My World - Biowaste is a winning proposal of the 2021 global Green Shark innovation challenge that catalyzes green entrepreneurial opportunities and inspires a new generation of environmental scientists and experimenters. Thanks to the initiative of UNDP and UNICEF, North Macedonia got the first open Biohacking laboratory with the latest technology equipment.
The Bio Hack My World 2023 program aimed to challenge and support startups, teams, and entrepreneurs in STEM research, biotechnologies, and biowaste transformation. The pre-accelerating program was also created to promote awareness and advancements in bio-waste transformation.
The program showcased the Biohacking lab as a hub for innovation and facilitated the formation of 11 diverse teams with 37 participants. These teams aimed to address the challenges of converting biowaste into valuable products and transformative solutions, highlighting the potential for sustainable practices.
