The 2023 Microbiome & Probiotics R&D and Business Collaboration Forum comes at an exciting time for the microbiome industry. The recent FDA approvals for Seres Therapeutics and MaaT Pharma (Phase III Clinical Trial), along with Vedanta Biosciences’ successful fundraising highlight the industry’s potential for a range of therapeutic applications, including the first drugs on the market. Not to forget, Ferring Pharmaceuticals and BiomeBank received FDA approvals last year. With numerous clinical studies underway, momentum has returned to the microbiome industry. Discover the newest advances that are taking place with us, in San Diego, this October.

Topics covered include gut health and disease, as well as the stunning advances being made in understanding the gut-brain axis. Speakers will also report on the developments in Probiotics, Prebiotics, and Postbiotic research as well as personalized nutrition and cardiometabolic disease. For 2023 we have expanded coverage of Women’s health, advances in HMO & infant health, and Cancer. And don’t forget we will explore the challenges and opportunities in translating research towards commercialization, as well as learn how partnerships and collaborations can secure investment.

 

“The talks I went to had real content (data, innovative ideas, business impact)” 
“I met people from all areas in this growing industry… academia, pharma and consumer products”
“Deeper understanding of product concepts – especially clinical relevance and application to health outcomes”
“Excellent speakers … a mix of research and business focussed talks”

Don’t forget your ticket also gives you access to the 5th Skin Microbiome & Cosmeceuticals Congress: USA

Sustainability

Global Engage is a member of ISLA, a body established to accelerate the event industry transition to a sustainable future. As part of this, we are committed to selecting venues with more sustainable practices.

Event App

We have reduced waste by replacing printed documentation with an app. Make sure you have it downloaded to your devices in time for the meeting. Get Agorify on Google Play and Apple App Store.

Catering

You will have some great food choices while you are with us but now we have worked with the caterer to increase the proportion of plant-based items. We have also built a plan with the venue to avoid waste through how they serve meals and how any leftovers are processed. Our aim is that you have some great meals, whilst with us, but with less environmental impact by the time you leave.

Travel

An international meeting does involve travel but where it is practical, please consider more sustainable alternatives to flying. The app will also have a discussion space to arrange ride shares.
