Bio Innovations Midwest is the new event dedicated to driving the exciting growth of industrial biomanufacturing in the U.S.
On 24-25 September, over 250 industry leaders will connect in Omaha via a programme of pre-arranged 1-2-1 commercial meetings, knowledge exchange and networking.
Brought to you by World Bio Markets, this two day event will present the Midwest as the heartland of the US bioeconomy and will generate deal flow between bio developers and producers, global brands and buyers, investors and financiers, community enablers and suppliers.
the event provides a home for the industrial biomanufacturing community in the Midwest and will facilitate, much needed, knowledge sharing and collaboration.
the event will connect the wider value chain and will help innovators scale from lab, to pilot, to demo, to industrial at a greater speed and with a higher success rate.
the event will promote the capabilities of the region to Europe and Asia and why it is a great place to do bio business.
Hear from the bio pioneers who are bringing ground breaking sustainable solutions to the market, investors funding the acceleration, consumer facing brands who are integrating bio within their wider sustainability strategy and the community enablers who can supercharge scalability and commercialisation. The program addresses every part of the industrial biomanufacturing ecosystem from farmer to consumer and everything in between.
Highly targeted and pre-arranged 1-2-1 commercial meetings are key to accelerating the growth of the bioeconomy and are at the heart of Bio Innovations Midwest.
Our format removes the element of luck from traditional networking and provides the most cost and time efficient way of connecting with potential new customers and partners.
In the run-up to the conference, all attendees can view each other’s profile and pre-arrange 20-minute meetings via our online planner.
Bio Innovations Midwest has been designed to connect and generate deal flow between more than 250 industry leaders across bio developers and producers, global brands and buyers, investors and financiers, community enablers and suppliers.
If you operate within the bioeconomy and wish to scale your business at a faster pace, or if you are interested in the role of the bioeconomy in North America, Bio Innovations Midwest is THE event for you.
World Bio Markets 2024 saw 350 attendees joining us for two days of 1-2-1 meetings, conference sessions and networking in The Hague.
We had a record number of meetings this year, with the meeting tables on The Exchange being totally, 100% fully booked across the two days which is incredible! This level of engagement proves this is an industry determined to grow and scale together, and we’re delighted to be on that journey with you.
