About New Zealand Institute for Bioeconomy Science Limited

The Bioeconomy Science Institute brings together AgResearch, Manaaki Whenua – Landcare Research, Plant & Food Research and Scion into a single organisation. We are more than 2,000 people, including more than 1,500 scientists and researchers, located across Aotearoa New Zealand and around the world. We are here to support the growth and resilience of the bioeconomy in New Zealand and beyond. Our science develops new products, processes and technologies that optimise the use of biological resources to deliver food and materials from a resilient supply chain while protecting the natural environment. We translate science into real-world outcomes, impact and commercial success. The Bioeconomy Science Institute is a Crown Research Institute, owned by the New Zealand Government and governed by an independent Board of Directors. We have deep relationships with business, industry bodies, Māori iwi and hapū, universities, independent research organisations, government and communities. We’re brand new, formed on 1 July 2025, building on 100 years of history to make a difference to the future. While we build the Bioeconomy Science Institute, we are committed to ensuring we continue to deliver high-quality science and commercialisation activities through our temporary Group structure.
