Foreword

As a teacher, researcher, and administrator in the field of Biotechnology for the past four decades, it gives me immense pleasure to write a foreword to the book entitled ‘Opportunities for Biotechnology Research and Entrepreneurship’. Biotechnology as a Science has improved employability by combining applied scientific research with business, enterprise, and entrepreneurial skills. Though there are several books in the field of Biotechnology, it is important to capture the link between applied research and entrepreneurship. This book edited by Dr. Sagarika Devi, Prof. Gokul Shankar Sabesan and Prof. Sultan Ahmed Ismail and Published by Bentham Science Publishers is an attempt to develop a solid understanding of science, technology in the business management. Applied and innovative approaches in biotechnology coupled with the entrepreneurship can provide more career and business opportunities in future which is a boon in the era where unemployment problem is of major concern.

The book has 15 chapters and mainly focuses on niche areas of food sciences, medicine, industrial and environmental biotechnology and is authored by global authors representing different countries like India, Vietnam, Thailand and Malaysia. This is Part-1 of the multi series volume. The multi-disciplinary approach of merging diversified areas of Biotechnology in-to one book volume is an appreciable attempt that would help to bring creative ideas in cross-over research and pave the way for new start-ups.

The innovative information and concepts given in the book would not only add value to the existing knowledge but also provide ideas to students, researchers, scientists, entrepreneurs, and policy makers in the area of applied and industrial biotechnology. I congratulate the authors and editors for bringing out this volume with meticulous commitment and amazing teamwork.
