Following the success of the last two editions, Wallonia will be back from 3 to 6 June 2024 with a delegation of 26 companies, universities and other operators from the life sciences sector at the BIO International Convention in San Diego, USA. It's an opportunity to highlight the healthy state of the sector in Belgium and Wallonia. 

The Bio International Convention is a key event for biotech companies, organised by the Biotechnology Industry Organization (BIO), the world's leading trade association for the biotechnology industry. As every year, the delegation of Walloon companies is led by Wallonia Export & Investment Agency and the Walloon health cluster BIOWIN. The 2022 edition (post-Covid) was already a success, and the 2023 edition did even better, bringing together more than 1,540 exhibitors, some 20,559 participants from all over the world (73 countries) and no fewer than 57,000 partnering meetings. The Belgian delegation was one of the ten largest foreign delegations, with 105 people representing 58 companies and operators, including 30 from Wallonia.
