Calling all makers, hackers & punks across Europe - let's build with 🧬 biology!

On November 10-16th, join 300+ peers in designing and demoing bio-based solutions in wetware, hardware and software.

Best projects will win up to 3000 EURs, sequencing credits, special prizes and a chance to pitch at the SynBioReactor in Berlin.

Below you will find all the resources you need to know what to expect at Read~Write~Grow 2025.

All updates to this document and more will be available on Discord.

About RWG

Read~Write~Grow is an experiment that is trying to answer the following question: how far can you get in demoing biotech solutions to world problems without stepping foot in the lab?! Be as creative as possible.

Perhaps you use CAD to design a bioreactor and use a program to simulate how it will work.

Perhaps you will design genetic constructs and detail how they will be cloned into organisms.

Perhaps you design a bioinformatics pipeline for a novel diagnostic tool.

Be brave and try things out. Demo your solution :)
