BioWales returns in 2011 to showcase the bioscience sector in Wales to an international, commercial and academic audience of delegates with a conference, brokerage event and exhibition. Amongst the speakers at BioWales 2011 are:

• Prof. John Harries, Wales’ Chief Scientific Adviser
• Lesley Griffiths AM, Deputy Minister for Science, Innovation and Skills

BioWales 2010 came to a close with organisers heralding the most successful in the event’s eight year history, reflecting a buoyant bioscience sector, described by First Minister of Wales Carwyn Jones as "exceptionally significant to the country."

The two day event at the Vale Hotel near Cardiff drew its largest audience of close to 400 delegates with an impressive line-up of international profile speakers, and brought together over 130 organisations for 488 structured profile meetings in the biopartnering event.

BioWales 2011 again takes place at the Vale Hotel, Golf and Spa Resort near Cardiff on March 1 and 2 (note the date change).

BioWales 2011 will feature:

• a conference programme
• a bioPartnering event with pre-arranged, one-to-one brokerage meetings to discuss potential collaboration projects and new technologies
• an exhibition and networking opportunity to share ideas and build profile
