BIO’s 2018 World Congress on Industrial Biotechnology in Philadelphia, July 16-19, 2018, is less than a month away! And with the tri-state region of Delaware, New Jersey and Pennsylvania ranking as one of the top markets for biotechnology and home to many startups, you won’t want to miss out on this year’s BIO World Congress.
From biobased consumer products and biofuels, to synthetic biology and gene editing, this year’s conference has something for anyone working in industrial biotechnology. Most notably, the 2018 BIO World Congress will feature robust programming around many of the technologies and companies featured in BIO’s 2018 Renewable Chemical Platforms Building the Biobased Economy directory. The directory provides an overview of 100 companies, from small startups to mature companies, and the commercialized biobased products and processes used across a variety of industries and subsectors including renewable chemicals, enzymes, biofuels and biobased polymers.
The directory is the perfect resource to navigate through the hundreds of exhibitors and companies working in renewable chemicals and other industrial biotechnology sectors that will be in Philadelphia at the 2018 BIO World Congress.
