The Ministry of Science, Technology & Innovation (MOSTI) and BiotechCorp are proud to be the host of BioMalaysia & ASEAN Bioeconomy Conference & Exhibition 2015 which will be held from 17 – 19 August 2015 at Putra World Trade Centre (PWTC). The event will be a very important landmark as Malaysia is the chair for ASEAN this year and the integration of ASEAN Economic Community in the region.

BioMalaysia & ASEAN Bioeconomy has established itself as one of the key meeting points for industry professionals. Over the years, the event continues to increase its value as a platform for the birth of fresh ideas, practical solutions and effective collaborations for global and Malaysian biotechnology industry participants.

Malaysia, as one of the most competitive biotechnology hubs in the Asia Pacific Region, has also recognised the importance of a Bioeconomy, and has taken early critical steps in coordinating and intensifying national efforts to harness Bioeconomy’s potential through the implementation of the Bioeconomy Transformation Programme (BTP)
