About

    Brett Schreyer is a bioprocess consultant with a passion for helping companies turn their fermentation ideas into commercial products. With over two decades of hands-on experience in industrial biotechnology, Brett brings a unique blend of technical expertise and practical leadership that clients can rely on.

    Before launching his consulting business, Brett held key leadership roles at multiple startups, where they were instrumental in taking groundbreaking bioprocesses to commercial scale. He has managed R&D projects and production campaigns with budgets ranging from $50,000 to several million dollars. This included managing teams that produced 10s to 100s of metric tons of renewable chemicals at pilot and demonstration scale, led process development and scale-up for a successful campaign in massive 600,000L fermentors, and drove upstream design of a fermentation facility.

    Brett's consulting approach is built on the belief that successfully commercializing a solid bioprocess requires meeting biology, engineering, and business demands. Arete BioProcess Consulting works with clients to:

• De-risk scale-up by identifying and resolving technical challenges early.

• Optimize processes to improve yields and cut operational costs.

• Provide strategic guidance on everything from commercialization to facility design.

As a collaborative partner, Arete helps clients navigate the complexities of fermentation to achieve reliable, cost-effective, and commercially viable results.
