Technology Vision Group LLC (TVG) is pleased to announce a collaboration with India-based MMActiv, ABLE and the Vision Group on Biotechnology to produce BioPartnering India (BPI) ™ @ Bangalore India Bio, India’s largest biotechnology event, June 2-4, 2010. These combined events, powered by TVG’s biopartnering.com^TM website, offer delegates the best opportunities for partnering in India.

BPI is more than a three-day conference and tradeshow. Several days of face-to-face networking at BPI combined with access to biopartnering.com before and after the events offers delegates a three-month business development experience. Last year’s event gathered more than 675 delegates who scheduled and attended 600 meetings and in 2010 we expect the growth to continue — attracting a larger international audience from the biotechnology, pharmaceutical, and research industries.

Why BioPartnering India @ Bangalore India Bio?

India’s biotechnology industry is predicted to grow to a $5 billion business by next year and double to $10 billion by the year 2015, according to Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw, a leading figure in India’s biotech industry. Many Big Pharma players are already developing strategic alliances and collaborative research programs with Indian partners and this trend is set to continue. There is no question that India provides excellent opportunities for growth and innovation.

Dr. Robert Lee Kilpatrick, Partner at TVG, commented, “India is important because of a concept called affordable innovation. It is a place you can go to as a biotech company — you can do research, development and clinical trials for a fraction of the cost to do similar work in the USA and Europe.”

Mr. Ashok Kumar C Manoli, Karnataka, India Principal Secretary for Information Technology, Biotechnology and Science & Technology, believes that the objective of the event is to get international companies to collaborate with Indian companies. This in turn will enable Indian companies to have an international platform for their business and showcase their products to a wide range of potential customers. After becoming an IT bellwether, India is now shifting its focus to the most promising industry of the future: biotechnology.

BioPartnering India Podium Presentations
