To move towards this goal, the Government of Navarra has<br \/>\napproved a <b>\u20ac2.5 million investment for 2027<\/b> to strengthen the scientific<br \/>\nand technological capabilities of the IRIS Innovation Hub.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span lang=\"EN-US\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<div><span lang=\"EN-US\">At the<br \/>\nheart of this strategy is the development of a new-generation <b>biofoundry<\/b>:<br \/>\nan automated bioproduction facility that combines robotics, artificial<br \/>\nintelligence and synthetic biology to design, build and test biological systems<br \/>\nat high speed.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span lang=\"EN-US\">Its<br \/>\npotential extends across several sectors that are strategically important to<br \/>\nNavarra, including <b>healthcare, biotechnology and agri-food<\/b>, helping<br \/>\ntransform scientific research into real industrial applications.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><span lang=\"EN-US\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<div><span lang=\"EN-US\">New<br \/>\ntechnology will be installed at both the IRIS Hub facilities in Sario and<br \/>\nNavarrabiomed.
