"Beyond the Pandemic, into a Next Wave"

Initiated in 2006, BIO KOREA is the biggest bio-health convention in Asia that

industry and ensuring the industry's sustainable growth. BIO KOREA 2022 will 
take place in COEX, Seoul from Wednesday, May 11 to Friday, May 13, 2022.

In 2021, the international convention faced a challenge of organizing an 
online-offline hybrid event amidst the pandemic, but against the odds it 
galvanized its reputation as Korea's leading international bio-health 
convention, attracting 7,000 participants from 800 companies and organizations 
in 69 countries. With high hopes for the post-COVID era in 2022, this year's 
convention is organized under the banner of "Beyond the Pandemic, into the Next 
Wave." The programs are centered around businesses in the bio-health industry, 
for example post-COVID, digital healthcare, and up-to-the-minute therapeutic 
technologies.

With the presence of some of the world's brightest minds, investors, 
executives, business experts, and researchers, BIO KOREA 2022 will offer 
important business and global partnership opportunities through business 
forums, exhibition, conference, and investment fair. 

The exhibition showcases the latest healthcare technologies and products with a 
range of demonstrations. Companies and institutions in the healthcare industry 
and many embassies set up national pavilions, where stellar businesses will 
participate as exhibitors. Particularly noticeable is the Metaverse Zone, where 
some of the most eye-catching future technologies will be demonstrated. 
Visitors will have opportunities to eyewitness the future of the global 
bio-health industry and have firsthand experience in the latest technologies.

Another key program, the business forum consists of Partnering and BIO LIVE. 
Designed to discover potential partnership opportunities and promote 
technologies and products, the forum also offers 1:1 meeting opportunities to 
discuss business and research cooperation and networking. The Partnering Center 
was open on the BIO KOREA 2022 official website (www.biokorea.org) on March 2, 
where metaverse companies, vaccine ingredients and diagnostic technology 
exhibitors that are attracting strong attention in Korea, promising startups, 
clinical trial labs, pharmaceutical companies, and research institutions are 
looking for business partners. Facing soaring requests globally, the convention 
organizer plans to run the online and offline Partnering Center 24/7 to 
maximize global partnership opportunities. Designed for business matching, BIO 
LIVE aims at bidirectional connections between online and offline participants 
for public relations and business matching.

The conference offers seminars themed around various topics including 
technology licensing, bio intellectual properties, medical devices, and 
pharmaceuticals, where internationally renowned scholars and experts will share 
their insights with participants and discuss the latest technological 
developments. Key topics to be covered include vaccines, immunotherapies for 
cancer, microbiome, Alzheimer's, and regenerative medicine, the sessions are 
well-organized into major tracks such as digital health and technological 
business to keep up with the latest developments and best practices and discuss 
future prospects in bio-health.

The investment fair will serve as a stepping stone for pharmaceutical, bio, and 
healthcare companies to advance into global markets, where they will showcase 
their drug development pipelines, advanced technologies, visions, and 
strategies.
