Debut is tremendously honored to be the first company to receive the Department of Defense’s award for the Distributed Bioindustrial Manufacturing Program aimed at expanding the domestic supply of ingredients and materials for US supply chains and bolstering the bioindustrial manufacturing base. As part of the award, Debut will receive $2M to produce business and technical plans outlining construction of a domestic bioindustrial manufacturing facility. If (and when!) successful, Debut can receive a follow-on award of up to $100M to build a US-based bioindustrial manufacturing facility. “To be the first company to receive this award is incredibly meaningful, as is the fact that our teams and scaled advanced biomanufacturing processes are deemed best-in-class,” said Debut’s Founder and CEO Joshua Britton. “As we continue to pioneer biotech in beauty, this award inspires our work further still in leading the industry’s transition to biotechnology and securing vital US supply chains.” Click here to read the Department of Defense’s press release: https://shorturl.at/UDN3X #biotechnology #biomanufacturing #bioeconomy #biotechbeauty #futureofbeauty

Great recap by BeautyMatter’s Cristina Montemayor of the recent FUTURE50 panel on biotech and ingredient innovation changing the face of beauty. We believe innovation is only possible when you can place novel ingredients into the supply chain to create new formulations, new claims, and new products. We never forget our “why”: to elevate the lives of consumers. https://lnkd.in/e2_jZVuZ

Debut’s CEO, Joshua Britton, had the pleasure of talking about how biotechnology will pioneer the fragrance industry’s transition to a sustainable future at the World Perfumery Congress in Geneva recently. At Debut, we are developing two types of fragrance ingredients: single molecule ingredients at 99% purity and fragrance compositions from the environment that involve particularly complex science. Debut vertically integrates in a single site, from ingredient discovery to finished product, eliminating a huge part of the fragrance industry’s carbon footprint, namely the transportation of ingredients. Thank you so much, Perfumer & Flavorist+, Jenna Troyli, Jeb Gleason-Allured and the extended team, for the inspiring event and lively conversation with all the panelists.

Last week, Debut was honored to attend roundtable discussions at the White House celebrating the Executive Order on Advancing Biotechnology and Biomanufacturing Innovation for a Sustainable, Safe, and Secure American Bioeconomy. The White House, members of the National Bioeconomy Board, and the Departments of Energy (DOE), Defense (DOD), and Agriculture convened major biotechnology and biomanufacturing companies, non-profits and stakeholders to discuss progress to date and critical upcoming milestones to support the nation’s bioeconomy. Debut’s Joseph Magbanua, Director of PMO and Business Development, addressed the importance of creating scaled, bio-based products that outperform their petrochemical-based counterparts and provide true differentiation in the marketplace. Since Debut was founded in 2019, we have been a product-forward company focused on the shift from petrochemicals to industrial bioproduction. In a short period of time, we have achieved a proven track record of successfully developing bioproducts from ingredient conception to scaled biomanufacturing. Join us as we pioneer the beauty industry’s transition to the bioeconomy.  #Biotechbeauty #biotechnology #biomanufacturing #biobeauty #futureofbeauty
