About BIO International Convention

The BIO International Convention is the largest and most comprehensive event for biotechnology, representing the full ecosystem of biotech with 20,000 industry leaders from around the world.

 

BIO 2026 is where we return to our essential "why." It is our opportunity to reconnect as a global community, to recharge our commitment, and to remember that behind every innovation is a shared mission: to improve lives. This is the force that unites us—not the pursuit of status or stability, but the unwavering conviction to solve the impossible, to push boundaries, and to achieve better outcomes for patients, public health, and the world.

Whether you work at a public pharmaceutical company, biotech startup, academia, non-profit organization, or government agency; or you work as a researcher, business development professional or investor, BIO is where you'll make valuable connections and build relationships. Our proprietary BIO Partnering™ meeting-scheduling platform—exclusive to the Premier Access registration package—allows you to find potential partners, schedule and accept meetings.

Registration opens in February. Sign up for our mailing list to receive updates.
