Last week, the National Security Commission on Emerging Biotechnology brought its Biotech Across America Roadshow to Colorado, and Alta was proud to be part of it.
On July 24, Commissioner Alexander Titus visited our facility in Boulder to see how we’re using advanced biotechnology to separate rare earths and other critical minerals that are the building blocks of the 21st-century economy. The visit was part of a two-day stop that also included the Colorado School of Mines, the National Laboratory of the Rockies, and a cross-section of Colorado's biotech ecosystem.
The commission is focused on how biotechnology can close the gap on one of the most consequential strategic vulnerabilities the United States faces. Alta’s work sits at the center of that challenge: our scalable mineral-separation platform is built on engineered proteins rather than the bulk industrial chemistry that has long prevailed. As control of critical materials increasingly serves as geopolitical leverage, Alta offers a faster path to supply-chain resilience.
