The event will be co-located with the 5th Plant Genomics & Gene Editing Congress USA.  
 
Should you be an expert in developing biological products, or a scientist researching plant and microbe processes, the conference will be an excellent opportunity to learn, share, discuss and engage with the most current plant science research and technology. During the two-day conference, there will be networking breaks to promote interaction with your peers, expert led case study presentations, a dynamic exhibition room filled with technology providers showcasing their technologies and solutions, roundtable discussions for in-depth exploration of key issues, and an interactive panel discussion.

A key focus of the event is facilitating collaboration between the over 170 senior representatives from industry and academia who attend. In terms of content, the conference will examine the latest technologies, strategies and research in the growing biologicals industry. Increasing prioritization of sustainability in agriculture has led to rapid growth in the agricultural biologicals industry.
