As you know, the BIO Convention is the world's largest and most important bioscience trade show. The 2011 convention in Washington DC drew 16,000 attendees from 60 countries and hosted over 14,000 partnering meetings.

In 2011, NYBA, SUNY Research Foundation and NY BioHud Valley partnered to create the first New York Pavilion at the BIO Convention in the past four years. Twenty universities, companies and organizations exhibited, establishing a new and vibrant platform for New York's bioscience community to reach customers and partners, and to grow our bioscience economic opportunity.

For 2012, we are moving forward to expand New York's presence and visibility. We have doubled the size of the pavilion--to 2,000 square feet--in order to maximize the number of organizations that can exhibit.

New for 2012: Pre-Scheduled, Efficient, Successful Meetings in the New York Pavilion
Exhibitors can schedule 30-minute meetings in their exhibit booths via the One-on-One Partnering™ System. 

In addition to the traditional connections on the exhibition floor, exhibitors have greater access to attendees, increased flexibility, premier branding and a more structured and efficient event experience!

I hope that your organization will join us as an exhibitor in the New York Pavilion. Please let me know as soon as possible if you are interested in reserving space in the New York Pavilion.
