At Demo Day organized at Lütfi Kırdar Congress Centre, the five bioentrepreneurs will attend BIO Entrepreneurship Bootcamp and BIO Convention in Philadelphia between June 1-6

The first day of the camp was held at ITU Magnet, the second day at AIFD office and the third day at BIOExpo as a part of TUSEB’s “To a Strong Bioeconomy: Priorities and Collaborations in Biotechnology” symposium. At the afternoon of April 19, 5 bioentrepreneurs selected from 11 bioentrepreneurs earned the opportunity to attend world’s most important biotechnology organization, BIO Convention.

Founder Partner of ELAA Teknoloji Prof. Dr. Tunç Laçin shared his opinions after BIO Startup Program: “The purpose of our application to the program is to see and search where our prototype would reach and with which companies we can collaborate with at BIO Convention. We are grateful to AIFD for their support in terms of investment opportunities. We believe collaborations, consensuses and project partnerships will be important. We, as a Turkish brand, aim to show such company can expand abroad for exportation.”
