“The Ausbiotech Biotech Invest 2013 and Ausbiotech 2013
conferences were informative, dynamic and productive. The
panel format and discussion topics at Ausbiotech Biotech
Invest 2013 were particularly constructive. They facilitated
engaging dialogue during which regional and industry-specific
issues were openly discussed. As an investor, I was particularly
impressed with the range of participating stakeholders from the
investment and start-up biotech communities. Ausbiotech 2013
provided a great platform for all industry stakeholders, ranging
from entrepreneurs to large pharma management, and local
academics to international investors.”

In 2014, the program will feature at least 40 biotech company
presentations, including 5 - 10 international companies.
The program will also feature a mix of expert panellists, and
keynote speakers from across the world.
Attendance at the event allows delegates, investors and
companies the opportunity to use the biopartnering system.
This provides individuals and companies the chance to prearrange one-on-one meetings to take place during the event.
In previous years, this system has been responsible for many
fruitful discussions, which have lead to deals taking place
between investors and biotech companies.
What delegates have said about the 2013
event:
Overview
Australia Biotech Invest, jointly organised by AusBiotech and
Beacon Events, brings together life science investors with
biotech innovators from Australia, and worldwide. The event
