Join Bionow for a dynamic Networking Breakfast, where you’ll meet key players from Belgium- Wallonia’s advanced therapies sector. This is a unique opportunity to connect with representatives from leading research institutions, therapy developers, CDMOs, and cutting-edge technology providers from a region recognized as one of Europe’s pioneers in advanced therapies. Discover the innovative technologies and solutions they’re showcasing, and explore how your work could complement theirs, as well as how Wallonia’s solutions could integrate into your organization’s needs. Whether you're seeking collaboration opportunities or the perfect partner in ATMP, enjoy breakfast, coffee, and exciting conversations with Wallonia’s experts and innovators in the field.
