What is Knowledge for Growth?

Knowledge for Growth is Europe's largest regional biotech convention and is organised by FlandersBio, the umbrella organisation for the life sciences and biotech sector in Flanders.

What abstracts are we looking for?

Abstracts presenting science or technology in the broad area of medical, plant or industrial biotechnology or medical technology.

We aim for a 50-50 mix of industry and academic presentations.
Abstracts should focus on technology or research that is of interest to the biotech community at large and should clearly state the technology or scientific project, focusing on the concept and rationale behind it without in-depth experimental details.

Special attention will be given to abstracts scoring high on:

• Innovation
• Cutting edge technology
• Research Excellence
• Marketability

24 scientific abstracts will be selected by the Knowledge for Growth scientific committee for an oral presentation and all abstracts within the scope of the conference can be presented as a poster.

This gives you the opportunity to present your research to a large audience (last year we had more than 1000 registered participants). Oral presenters get a free entry ticket to the convention; poster presenters get a 50% reduction on the registration fee and can compete for one of the 4 poster awards (value = 500 EUR each). More details about this will be provided in due course.

Submit your abstract

You can submit your abstract via the form on http://knowledgeforgrowth.be/abstracts-and-posters/ (Deadline: 12/01/2012).

!! Please note that new information disclosed in the abstracts and on posters may invalidate patent applications. In case of doubt, we advise you to consult your patent expert within the technology transfer or legal department.
