Why you should participate in BIO-Europe Spring

Over the last 30 years, BIO-Europe, has become Europe’s flagship partnering event. Its international reach makes it a one-of-a-kind offering, with attendees from all parts of the biotechnology value chain gathering to efficiently identify, engage and form strategic relationships that drive their businesses successfully forward.

BIO-Europe Spring brings together the global life science community, facilitating more than 20,000 one-to-one partnering meetings. In 2025, the show attracted 3,700 attendees from over 60 countries.

The EU’s life sciences sector is valued at more than €1.5 trillion and is home to 15% of the world’s top life sciences companies. Europe increasingly looks to Australia as a high-quality partner recognised for its efficient regulatory system, world-class and cost-effective clinical research, and competitive R&D environment.
