The iF Design Awards, which began in 1953 under the auspices of the German International Forum, is considered one of the world's top three design awards along with the IDEA Design Awards of the United States and the Red Dot Design Awards of Germany. Each year, across nine categories of products, packages, and interiors, award-winning works that have passed strict screening standards such as ideas, differentiation, and influence are selected.
The award-winning eco-center is the biOrb EARTH Vivarium of OASE GmbH, Germany. Vivarium refers to an eco-center that creates the optimal environmental conditions for a particular creature to live in for the purpose of observation or research. The award-winning vivarium was highly praised for creating a perfect ecosystem of sunlight, soil, water, and moisture suitable for amphibians and wetland flora and fauna, and was selected as the winner of the main prize in the product category on that account.
Seoul Semiconductor supplied the SunLike technology that realizes natural light to this eco- center. SunLike is a differentiated lighting technology that lowers blue wavelengths that cause glare and insomnia to the same level as natural light, so it is not only visually comfortable but also helps stabilize the circadian rhythm of humans and even those of plants and animals as well.
“Amphibians are very sensitive to light. They can lose their sight or have a higher chance of causing mutations in artificial lighting, so the choice of lighting is more important than anything else when building an eco-center,” said Lee Seong-jin, head of lighting business at Seoul Semiconductor. "We are very pleased that OASE Vivarium, which is supplied with SunLike lighting, won the award for its technology and differentiation."

Virica Biotech and FUJIFILM Biosciences Collaborate Under the Canada–Japan Co‑Innovation Program to Advance AAV Production Enhancers8.4.2026 16:00:00 EEST | Press release
Virica Biotech (“Virica”), a cell enhancer company specializing in Viral Sensitizers (VSE™) for viral vector manufacturing, today announced it is receiving advisory services and funding from the National Research Council of Canada Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC IRAP), under the Canada–Japan Corporate Co-Innovation Program for a collaboration with FUJIFILM Biosciences. The collaboration will focus on optimizing a VSE™ formulation for FUJIFILM Biosciences BalanCD HEK293 media to support academic and commercial AAV producers globally. AAV vectors are a cornerstone of in vivo gene delivery for gene therapies, but they remain difficult and expensive to manufacture at scale. As pipelines expand to more indications and broader patient populations, significantly greater amounts of high-quality AAV are required, while the need for commercially viable therapies places pressure on cost-of-goods. Current manufacturing methods and underlying economics are often not sufficient to meet t
