With the consumer at the center and the focus on experiences, business models are transformed at the pace of advancement in technology; That was the conclusion reached by more than 20 entrepreneurs, executives and academics who debated in a meeting organized by LA NACION.

"Start a business with the chip of the future" That is the slogan that unifies four entrepreneurs who set up projects that range from the generation of genetic replicas of polo horses to the creation of healthy products from microalgae and that gathered in a panel of Business of the future, an event organized today by LA NACION in the auditorium of the Malba museum.

The Argentine firm Kheiron-Biotech, of the Proinvesa Group, signed an agreement with the North American company Acceligen, of the Recombinetics group, a reference in gene editing, to carry out a series of joint projects in precision breeding.

They were able to 'silence' the myostatin gene to improve the productivity of Brangus breed specimens. Then, they cloned the embryos and implanted them in the uterus of cows. The first improved calves will be born in 2020.

"Precision genetic progress" is called the project that Kheiron Biotech scientists made. It generates animals with greater muscle mass and great productive benefits such as lean meat and greater protein production per animal.

How close are we to the reality of a cloned thoroughbred racehorse? We discuss with Daniel Sammartino of Kheiron Biotech and Dr. Pablo Ross of the University of California at Davis's animal science department.

Argentine scientists from the Kheiron company together with FLENI researchers developed cloned equine embryos, which would improve the potential and dexterity of polo horses through a new genetic editing technique..

They run faster, jump higher, and could come to the Olympic Games.

The term “genetically engineered” doesn't just apply to crops—soon it may also apply to horses.

Armed with genetically altered embryos, scientists all set to produce cloned 'Dolly' of horse.

Genetically engineered super-horses could be born in 2019 after a genetic breakthrough by a laboratory that has previously cloned polo ponies.

A leading horse-cloning company has raised the prospect of using gene-editing to produce horses with superior athletic ability.

Scientists, who had previously cloned polo ponies, have achieved yet another breakthrough in their work that could lead to the creation of genetically engineered “super-horses” that are faster, stronger and better jumpers than regular horses within two years.

Scientists have rewritten the genomes of cloned horses by using a powerful DNA editing technique called CRISPR.

Genetically engineered super-horses could be born in 2019 after a genetic breakthrough by a laboratory that has previously cloned polo ponies.

Genetically engineered horses designed to be faster, stronger and better jumpers will be born in 2019 after a breakthrough by the same laboratory which clones polo ponies.

The animals will be designed to run faster and jump higher.

Genetically engineered horses designed to be faster, stronger and better jumpers will be born in 2019 after a breakthrough by the same laboratory which clones polo ponies.

Genetically engineered horses which will be able to jump better and faster will be a reality by 2019 due to a breakthrough research work by scientists who also cloned polo horses.

By 2019, genetically engineered horses that are faster, stronger and better jumpers than regular horses are likely to compete in tournaments.

Genetically engineered horses designed to be faster, stronger and better jumpers will be born in 2019 after a breakthrough by the same laboratory which clones polo ponies.

Cloning is one of the favorite tools for duplicating horses of sporting interest, for example, polo mares. Recently, a team of Argentine scientists made history by going a step further with what they call Precision Genetic Progress by ingesting genes of interest in embryos. Daniel Sanmartino, from the Kheirón laboratory, explains how they started.

Using the CRISPR-Cas9 technique or called "genetic scissors", they managed to alter the DNA of a polo horse to improve its potential and dexterity.

Argentinean scientists from KHEIRON working together with FLENI, manage to generate for the first time in the world equine embryos genetically edited using the technique CRISPR-Cas9.

The fantastic stallion had his genetic copy.

Scientists generated genetically engineered embryos to obtain more muscular, resistant and fast-moving animals.
