The Biomanufacturing Industry Development Centre (BIDC) is a first of its kind in South Africa and it aims to support small, medium and micro enterprises (SMMEs) involved in bio-manufacturing in meeting their customer needs within short time-frames and be able to exploit market opportunities.<\/p>\n

The BIDC’s support for SMMEs is through the development of bio-based manufacturing processes and products. Companies that are incubated at the BIDC have access to ready-to-use bio-manufacturing facilities, support in research and development laboratories as well as access to experts in the fields of agro-processing and bio-processing product development and scale-up.<\/p>\n

Funded through the Department of Science and Technology’s Industrial Innovation Partnership Programme the BIDC is a hub for innovation in bio-manufacturing sector.<\/p>\n

We are now awaiting applications to the programme for SMMEs requiring incubation. To apply please follow the link.<\/a> Applications close 22 July 2016.<\/strong><\/p>\n

There will be a non-compulsory briefing session for interested parties on Friday 15 July<\/strong> from 14h00-15h30. Please RSVP<\/strong> to attend this session by sending an e-mail to (bidc@csir.co.za<\/a>) by Wednesday 13 July.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
