EuroBio2006EuroBiO, an international congress bringing together biotechnology and the bio-industries, will take place in Paris, France, from 25 to 27 October.

Each of the three days will deal with a specific theme, through a programme of conferences, symposia, round tables and plenary sessions: innovation day on Wednesday, finance day on Thursday, global issues day on Friday.
