The 11th Central European Forum of Biotechnology and Innovative BioEconomy BioForum 2012 is a great way to discover an impressive potential of biotechnology in Central Europe. Today the strongest centers of innovative biobusiness are located in United States and Asia. Biotechnology industry also becomes more and more important sector of economy in South America, particularly in such countries like Brazil, Argentina and Chile. BioForum is becoming the center of innovative biobusiness that integrates all the activities of biotechnology companies and the science-research teams of Central Europe. The partnership within Central Europe dynamically speeds up the development of innovative biobusiness in particular countries of this region, as well as it makes the region more attractive for the global biotechnology leaders. This approach proves itself very clearly, because all previous editions of the conference were really successful, making BioForum one of the most prestigious bio-tech events around the world. That is why BioForum constantly attracts the investors and the companies with the most promising growth potential. It also gathers the part of the science society that is innovative and creative, yet wide open for any kind of partnership. BioForum also gives a warm welcome to those students, who tie their future with the biotechnology and innovative biobusiness.

It also means that they are still looking for partners in biobusiness and outsourcing.
