International

BIO promotes science-based policies and protect market-based incentives to enable the growth of the global biotechnology ecosystem.

Global collaboration is increasingly important as governments around the world seek to develop comprehensive policy frameworks to support biotechnology innovation. Through collaboration and dialogue, we can create a global policy environment that enables the biotechnology sector to meet societal needs, such as treating and curing disease, mitigating climate change and feeding a growing global population.
