The network is represented by NBANK Investitions- und Förderbank Niedersachsen GmbH, Zenit GmbH, Mühlheim/Ruhr, HessenAgentur GmbH, Wirtschaftsförderung und Technologietransfer Schleswig-Holstein and Steinbeis-Europa-Zentrum, Stuttgart., ,BioMeetingpoint 2005 is the opportunity for companies and research institutes to meet like-minded representatives of Europe's biotech community to discuss research and technological developments, products and applications and ways of cooperating.
Since 1997, the Innovation Relay Centres have organised targeted brokerage events at each Biotechnica fair in Hanover. Last year, more than 70 profiles were collected and in excess of 330 meetings were scheduled. The 2005 event aims to maximise the companies' visit to BioTechnica by offering a partnering event during which our technology experts will help to meet prospective clients and cooperation and partners in face-to-face meetings in the space of two days.

What past participants have said:
- BioMeetingpoint has been a good opportunity for us to meet European and US companies. It's cost effective and efficient, especially for new companies. I will definitely join the next one.
- Congratulations on a great job. Simply the best TT event I attended ever!
- Keep moving this way: it is great!
- I think the organisation of the event was very good. From the point of view of a research institution I consider bilateral meetings a good opportunity to get contact with companies.
