Gen2Bio

Large regional gathering of biotechnology professionals, Gen2Bio remains a unique event in France by its size and its success in bringing together researchers and biotech companies. Each year, nearly 400 participants attend high-level conferences and thematic workshops organized by Biogenouest: biotech companies, research laboratories, competitiveness clusters, development players, researchers, engineers and doctoral students ... all mainly from Bretagne and Pays de la Loire, the territory of Biogenouest, but also other regions of France and Europe. Gen2Bio aims to promote the biotechnology skills of our region, thus contributing to the influence of the Great West.

For more than 10 years the community responds present, so this event takes every year a little more scale in terms of notoriety and attendance. We are committed to maintaining and increasing the level of quality and interest.

2020 – Online

The 13th edition of the Gen2Bio congress took place online (health situation) around the theme of the sea.

For 2020, Biogenouest confirms its commitment to presenting the research dynamics of the network of technological core facilities of the Great West. Alternating from one year to another between Bretagne and Pays de la Loire, the 13rd edition of the Biotech Gen2Bio congress, organized by Biogenouest, was to take place in Brest but sanitary conditions imposed a postponement (from March to November) and a webinar format. The three plenary conferences presented during this new edition had “the Sea” as their red thread. The twenty-four technological workshops offered a program rich in innovations and highlighted the know-how of the core facilities.

Biogenouest and its Scientific Council have chosen to present for this edition 3 innovative projects in the field of the Sea within the framework of plenary conferences. In addition, multi-thematic technological workshops were led by 30 to 40 speakers, most of them internationally renowned.
