The 21st century is witnessing the dawn of biotechnology, which is expected to surpass Information Technology as the new engine of the global economy. Its products will be more important than the fire, the wheel, or the car and will generate more knowledge in a short period of time than history's collective wisdom. Biotechnology is expected to alter healthcare, agriculture, commercial and industrial products. It is predicted, that by the middle of the 21st century, all companies will become Biotech companies in some form or the other.

During 1970s and 80s the understanding of biology reached a point where it was possible to use the smallest parts of organisms, their cells and molecules.
