BioPartnering China 1.0 in Conjunction with BioEco 2009 Conference 25-28 June

4 Day Networking Event at the Binhai International Convention Centre, Tianjin, China

BioPartnering China 1.0 in Conjunction with BioEco 2009 Conference 25-28 June

BioPartnering China 1.0 (BPC) produced by Technology Vision Group LLC (TVG), in conjunction with the International Conference for Bioeconomy (BioEco) will provide international and Chinese life science delegates a 4 day, 2 event, 1 location opportunity to meet the critical players in the growing Chinese life science market. China's biotech industry is evolving rapidly, presenting international life science companies with valuable partnering opportunities. Substantial Chinese government funding is driving innovation, attracting scientific talent, and building the foundation to support international partnerships. The key to success for US companies in forging relationships in China is understanding the unique opportunities and challenges the China biotech sector presents.

TVG Has Built a Critical Network in This Emerging Market

This network supports US companies as they navigate the Chinese market. Building on the successful model of BioPartnering Europe and BioPartnering North America, TVG now brings you BPC, which will bring together Chinese and US entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, life science companies, and strategic partners you need to access in this vast, rapidly growing market.

BPC Launches on 25 June 2009 in Tianjin , an important economic center with significant government funding dedicated to biotech development. BPC delegates are automatically welcomed to the BioEco Conference on 26-28 June.

BioEco 2009 is the most influential professional exhibition and technical exchange platform in the pharmaceutical technology and life science areas in China, playing an important role as a bridge connecting government, industry, academic research, funding and services, historically bringing in more than 80,000 professional visitors. BPC is your opportunity to set up one-to-one meetings the day before BioEco, through the power of biopartnering.com networking software.

China's Economic Stimulus Package is Driving Significant Funding

The Chinese government has established national ministries and departments focused on this sector, most notably the Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) and its life science division, the China National Center for Biotechnology Development (CNCBD).

TVG is creating an environment in which the world’s best life science companies can meet their Chinese counterparts to do business together, by collaborating with the China National Center for Biotechnology Development (CNCBD) in Beijing, which is a Department of the Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST), the Tianjin Municipal Science and Technology Commission (TSTC), the European Federation of Biotechnology (EFB), and BayHelix Group, an elite organization of Chinese life science business leaders.

A representative from CNCBD said, “We hope more and more foreign companies and friends come to China to accelerate biotechnology and industry development in China. We believe, through our cooperation with EFB, TSTC, TVG and other related institutions around the world, we can not only make BioEco 2009 and BioPartnering China successful and fruitful, but also provide greater cooperation platforms in China to biotech companies and friends in the rest of the biotech world.”

At regional levels, cities such as Shanghai, Beijing, Tianjin, and others have created initiatives to fund the growth of science parks and other economic development incentives. With 1.3 billion people, China must use biotechnology for various applications such as human, animal and plant health, food, materials, energy and other industrial uses. In fact, China has focused its attention on all aspects of what is termed the “bioeconomy” or that aspect of total economic activity in China, and globally, which allows national leadership to address key challenges to its sustainability in the 21st century. With a unique combination of huge government surpluses, focused guidance from the top, plenty of private sector capital, a skilled talent-base and entrepreneurs, China is quickly emerging as a rising star.

Europe Recognizes the Opportunity for Life Science Companies in China

Jens Sundbye, Board member of EFB remarked, “We have a long standing close collaboration with CNCBD and Chinese life science companies and organizations through joint life science programs and technology transfer activities throughout China. We are honored that CNCBD/MOST has invited the partners for collaboration and creation of the life science Olympics. The partners are experienced drivers of the global life science value train and invite the world to come to China and experience what China can offer.”
