The biotechnet is a partnership of the Swiss Universities of Applied Sciences, Universities as well as Research and Technology Organizations, active in the field of biotechnology. It was formed and supported by the commission for technology and innovation (CTI) in 1998 as a national network of competence in research. Through participation in and competent execution of high-caliber R&D projects, the biotechnet rapidly gained recognition as specialized partner to complement R&D projects with state-of-the art as well as innovative technologies.

Today the biotechnet is a virtual network enabling companies and interested institutions to activate biotechnological expertise according to their specific needs. Besides highly specific services for biotechnological R&D, our portfolio also contains process and development consulting. The biotechnet also gained an excellent reputation as designer, organizer and conductor of first class education programs for continuing education programs.

We have performed multiple industrial R&D projects with budgets often larger than CHF 1 Mio. We will complement your R&D projects with specific competencies. You also profit from our vast experience in successfully leading large networked R&D projects. Use the collaboration with us in a CTI project and our help is financed by the Swiss Federation. The biotechnet thus helps you access excellence in R&D and gives you optimal support at very low cost.
