【 #BIO2024】#PolyU is returning to BIO International Convention in San Diego in the States!

This year, the industry’s premier event has attracted more than 18,500 industry leaders across the global biotech ecosystem. As the sole university representing Hong Kong, PolyU has showcased our pioneering academic-led research and groundbreaking advancements in biotechnology and life sciences. Our booth is buzzing with vibrant exchanges and inspiring conversations as we aim to connect with industry leaders and learn the best practices!

On the other side of the hall, our PolyU-nurtured start-up, @YnnoMed Limited, led by Dr. Cong Ma also participated in the Hong Kong Pavilion as one of the companies from Hong Kong Science Park. Their presence underscored our commitment to fostering innovation and pursuing knowledge transfer.

If you are at BIO2024 and interested in cutting-edge research or international collaborations, join us at Booth #1411!
