Building upon the success of the Student Industry Networking events, the BIO5 Institute saw a need to connect University of Arizona faculty with the bioscience industry. To meet this need, a networking opportunity was created in collaboration with the BioIndustry Organization Southern Arizona (BIOSA) to facilitate university and industry innovators in life sciences, medicine, engineering, computer and information sciences to move their ideas and products to market.

Upcoming Events

The next event will be in late fall 2025.
