KL, Malaysia - The main objective of this project is to establish business and technology co-operation between biotech companies and research institutions from the 25 member states of EU and Asia/Malaysia.

EU-Malaysia Biotechnology Business Partnership 2007 (EUM-BIO) is a Business Match Making project co-funded by the Asia Invest II Programme of the European Commission (EC) and is jointly promoted by Malaysian Industry-Government Group for High Technology (MiGHT) and two European Partners, i.e. European Association for Bioindustries (EuropaBio) from Belgium and Association for the BioPharmaceutical Industry (BioFarmind) from The Netherlands.

The main objective of this project is to establish long term business and technology co-operation by arranging one-on-one partnering meetings between biotech companies and research institutions (inclusive of universities) from the 25 member states of EU and Asia/Malaysia to formalise business partnership such as technology transfer, R&D, trading of biotech products, venture capital investment, contract manufacturing, contract research, etc., via the event.
