Abstract: The utilisation of socio-scientific issues has shifted significantly towards the development of technology and science. The use of SSI is closely related to learning based on local wisdom. Learning based on local wisdom utilises the potential of local wisdom that lives in the community. The purpose of this research is to see the potential of socio-scientific issues on the process of biological technology innovation that lives in the community of Bima district, West Nusa Tenggara which leads to the Biotechnology industry. The method used in this research is a qualitative analysis method with theoretical and literature studies related to the utilisation of SSI. Then, the researcher synthesised the theory, to determine its relevance to learning based on local wisdom. The results of the theoretical study resulted in four dimensions of SSI including: 1) students are presented with a problem; 2) engage with socioscientific reasoning practice; 3) local wisdom based inquiry; 4) moral reasoning. The results showed that the SSI synthesised by the researcher has a very high potential to be used in local wisdom-based learning by reconstructing the cultural values of conventional biotechnology towards modern biotechnology and industrial biotechnology.
