Though small in surface area, the Netherlands is a major player in biotechnology. Its success is based on a strong academic backbone, an entrepreneurial spirit, a remarkable talent to get things organized and a natural ability to cooperate.

IBS2024 and ECB2024 will showcase frontline science that will form the basis for future commercial innovation. The scientific programme reveals an excellent line-up of plenary lectures and invited speakers. In line with the IBS and ECB tradition, we will promote the participation of young scientists by encouraging them to submit their original work to be considered for presentation as short talks or posters. 

Looking forward to meeting you in Rotterdam!
