项目摘要

Concert Bio is a start-up (UK SME) founded in 2021 by Dr Paul Rutten MBA (synthetic biologist; PhD in plant-microbe interactions from the University of Oxford; Entrepreneur First). We are developing a full-stack microbiome optimisation platform for controlled-environment agriculture (CEA) growers, which combines sequencing-based monitoring with environmental and probiotic interventions to maximise sustainable CEA crop production and minimise wasted operational costs through improving productivity, sustainability, and resilience.Founded in 2013, GrowUp Farms (UK SME, now part of Vescor Group) is a leading CEA grower based in England. GrowUp Farms latest CEA farm, Pepperness (Sandwich, Kent), will start supplying salad greens to UK supermarket shelves from early 2023\.With Innovate UK support, Concert Bio will develop a microbiome monitoring and optimisation service to improve productivity, sustainability, and resilience in CEA. Working with GrowUp Farms, Concert Bio will develop and validate the benefits of microbiome monitoring and optimisation, focusing initially on CEA lettuce. Successful project outcomes will bring significant benefits to CEA growers in England through increasing crop performance and sustainability

Concert Bio是一家初创企业（英国中小企业），由Paul Rutten博士（合成生物学家;牛津大学植物微生物相互作用博士;企业家第一）于2021年创立。我们正在为受控环境农业（CEA）种植者开发一个全栈微生物组优化平台，该平台将基于测序的监测与环境和益生菌干预相结合，通过提高生产力、可持续性和韧性，最大限度地提高可持续CEA作物产量，并最大限度地减少浪费的运营成本。（英国中小企业，现在是Vescor集团的一部分）是一家领先的CEA种植商，总部设在英格兰。GrowUp Farms最新的CEA农场Pepperness（三明治，肯特）将从2023年初开始向英国超市货架供应沙拉蔬菜。在Innovate UK的支持下，Concert Bio将开发微生物组监测和优化服务，以提高CEA的生产力，可持续性和弹性。与GrowUp Farms合作，Concert Bio将开发和验证微生物组监测和优化的好处，最初专注于CEA生菜。成功的项目成果将通过提高作物性能和可持续性，为英格兰的CEA种植者带来重大利益
