Biotechnology is a global business. Biotech in Odisha, is at a very early stage of development.

There are various biotechnology oriented educational, academic, research and governmental activities

happening in Bhubaneswar and other parts of Odisha, where biotechnology human resources (students,

faculties and research scientists, bioengineers) are getting developed. However, biotech R&D innovations

and inventions, academia-industry technology transfer leading to licensing and new product development

and bioentrepreneurship development are major gap areas in Odisha.

Odisha State is blessed with natural and biological resources, however commercialization and

productization of locally available bio-resources through applied biotechnologies have been challenging.

Biotech-Investors and Bio-Entrepreneurs in Odisha may target healthcare (human/veterinary), agriculture

(seeds and crops, medicinal plants/herbals/foods/nutrition), BT-IT interfaces (bioinformatics/medical &

clinical informatics), bio-energy and environment/green i and biotech services sectors.

Invest Bhubaneswar , a brand new organization, recently created by a group of local entrepreneurial, NROs,

ROs and supported by the Odisha Government and other public/private parties have broad-based interests

in promoting technology entrepreneurships and new ventures, including biotechnologies in Odisha.

The proposed Konark Knowledge Park Pvt. Ltd. (Andharua, near Bhubaneswar) is under a PPP-based

lease development partnership between the Odisha state Government and Hyderabad based Bharat

Biotech International Limited. The park is a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) for development of an integrated

bio park (65+ acres) to attract, incubate and promote biotechnology, pharmaceutical, information

technology and knowledge based Bio-Pharma  Bhubaneswar. The Department of Biotechnology (DBT),

Government of India is already funding for the establishment of a Biotech Incubation Center (BIC), a nonprofit

society, inside the Bio-Park to facilitate R&D/Technology-based bioentrepreneurships. Also, a second

larger bio-park (Phase 2, 200+ acres) is proposed to be built near Bhubaneswar, if investors and

entrepreneurs and companies may like to set up their bio-shops.

KIIT Technology Business Incubator (KIIT-TBI) is a recent initiative of KIIT University (Bhubaneswar)

supported by National Science & Technology Entrepreneurship Development Board (NSTEDB), Department

of Science & Technology (DST), Government of India. KIIT-TBI has been set up to attract investors and to

nurture technology entrepreneurs to enable them to establish startup, new ventures and small business

enterprises in Odisha.

Now, Bhubaneswar can offer early infrastructural biotechnology industrial facilities (R&D centers,

laboratories, bio-incubators, manufacturing units, services) and human resources in support of

biotechnology industry development in the State of Odisha.

Biotech Investment, BioEntrepreneurship, BioVentures and Development are emerging

opportunities for Odisha. Biotech in Odisha needs the congruence of five key areas - people, ideas,

investments, marketable business plans and R&D Technology-based Commercializable products.

Biotechnology and bio-based industry development in Odisha can contribute to the human

healthcare/biopharmaceuticals, plant/agriculture, food/nutrition, animal health/vet biotech, bio-energy/biofuel/

bio-diesel, bio-materials, herbals/medicinal plants, environment/green technology, BT-IT interfaces,

consumer bio-products, bio-services and PPP sectors.
