Ingenza is a biotechnology company based at Edinburgh Technopole in Midlothian. Founded in 2002, it works on cell engineering, synthetic biology and bioprocess development for organisations developing biological products and manufacturing processes.
The company's scientists use molecular biology, strain engineering and related laboratory techniques to design or improve biological production systems. Projects can involve engineering microorganisms or cells, developing processes for making target molecules and supporting customers as work moves from early research towards scalable production. Ingenza operates primarily as a specialist development partner rather than selling a broad catalogue of finished consumer products.
Ingenza Limited is an active Scottish company based in the inGenius Building at Edinburgh Technopole near Penicuik. The site houses laboratory and technical teams serving biotechnology, pharmaceutical, industrial and other life-sciences customers. Its Scottish location places the company within the wider Edinburgh life-sciences cluster while giving commercial partners access to a dedicated research and development organisation.
