European Biotech Week 2021

Date & Time 27 September - 3 October 2021
Address Across Europe

The European Biotech Week comprises a weeklong series of events celebrating biotechnology, an innovative and vibrant sector launched by the discovery of the DNA molecule back in 1953. The first European Biotech Week took place in 2013, marking the 60th anniversary of this pivotal moment in history. Thanks to that discovery, the deeper knowledge of genes, proteins, viruses, bacteria and genetic structures, in general, has allowed scientists and biotech entrepreneurs to translate knowledge into applications in sectors such as healthcare, agriculture, food, energy, water sanitation and biochemical processing, all of which have changed the world for the better.

Biotech National Associations, in collaboration with companies, academic and government institutions, science museums and the media, will organise events across Europe to celebrate this cutting edge technology.

No matter if your knowledge of biotech is vast or near to nothing, there really is something for everyone during the Biotech Week.
