CARLSBAD, Calif. & SUZHOU, China--()--The 2014 edition of ChinaBio® Partnering Forum, China’s premier life science partnering event, will be held May 7–8 at the Kempinski Hotel in Suzhou.

In 2013, the Forum was attended by more than 750 delegates from 405 companies and 22 countries, making it the largest partnering conference in China. Pharma and biotech companies as well as leading researchers from China's top universities and institutes consider it a must-attend event for establishing a presence in China’s expansive in-demand healthcare sector.

“The event has been extremely successful, and has edged out the competition making it the only successful life science partnering event in China,” said Greg B. Scott, President and Founder of ChinaBio® LLC. “There is still huge market potential, and interest in new drugs and healthcare options is only growing in China. Companies who want to secure a foothold there will find exponential opportunities.”

“China is a burgeoning market and there is a lot of potential for innovative companies including biotech and pharma, contract research organizations and investors,” said Florian Schoenhammer, Group Managing Director, EBD Group. “We are looking at the real-time transformation of China’s biotech and life science ecosystem. Undeniably, international companies are eager to build relationships in China to meet growing demand.”

The event is recognized by life science insiders as the largest and most productive partnering event for established biotech and early-stage companies to meet and collaborate with China-based corporate partners, including venture capitalists and business development executives from big pharma companies.

"China faces the same burdens of chronic disease as the West, and this burden represents a huge opportunity in terms of market potential,” said Gangfeng Xu, Divisional VP, Corporate Licensing & Acquisitions, Abbott Laboratories. “We are actively seeking innovative partnerships in China that will address current and future health concerns."

Innovative companies, organizations or researchers interested in partnering their technologies or products, initiating strategic alliances, or tapping into the financing network are encouraged to apply to present. Applications to present are currently in review, and should be submitted before the February 28, 2014 deadline.
