The BESST Approach: Harnessing Private Public Partnerships to Reduce Risk
-
Biotechnologies offer immense promise to address complex problems facing society. However, as biotechnologies and the associated industry grow and evolve, so does the associated threat landscape. At times, the threat landscape is so complex and nebulous that individual companies often lack the resources to understand and mitigate threats. Public-private partnerships (PPP) offer proven models to bring companies together to address common, complex challenges. Therefore, we propose establishing a PPP—the BioEconomy Safety, Security, and Technology (BESST) Partnership—to aid industry in identifying and characterizing common threats and developing evidence-based risk mitigation strategies.
