About
Novogy was a Cambridge, Massachusetts-based synthetic-biology startup founded in 2009 that engineered oleaginous yeasts and other microbes to convert waste paper sludge and other feedstocks into biofuels and high-value chemicals, working with MIT researchers on techniques to reduce contamination during fermentation. Backed in part by energy company Total S.A., Novogy was acquired by Ginkgo Bioworks in December 2020, which absorbed its intellectual property and much of its team.
