Don't miss this opportunity to broaden your insights and network with industry leaders!
Since 2021 the Swiss Biotech Day has grown 40% every year and has become a premier global biotechnology conference for life sciences professionals, fostering international collaboration and impactful partnerships. In 2024 it attracted some 2,500 participants from more than 40 countries, including 17 international delegations.
Join the Swiss Biotech Day to network, exchange ideas and explore advances in R&D, manufacturing, data management, AI and innovative financing. In addition, the embedded Global Village provides international delegations with a platform to strengthen their ties with the Swiss biotech hub to promote cross-border investments, public-private partnerships, R&D collaborations and the exchange of best practices.
Although the registration, programme and matchmaking activities are distinct, the organisers have carefully designed a complementary and enriching programme for both events.
Individual registrations for the Swiss Biotech Day 2026 open in January 2026.
Foreign delegations have the opportunity to participate in the Global Village exhibition space. Registrations for the Global Village are open now. For more information visit the Global Village website here.
