Business of Science Conference 2026

Since 2016 the Business of Science Conference has been bringing together the brightest minds from across the science and innovation ecosystem for a day of conversation, collaboration and the community building of people passionate about the commercialisation and future of science and innovation.

The conference sees business leaders, industrialists, academics, and policymakers explore the latest opportunities and challenges across the business of science. And we bring industry professionals together with students of all ages to help nurture scientific and innovative ideas that could become the products and services of tomorrow.

2026 will see a packed agenda of future viewpoints, panel discussions, and breakout sessions will explore how skills, AI, the bioeconomy, life science achievements, and materials innovation will impact our future.

The day culminates with an awards ceremony celebrating aspirational primary, secondary and 18+ students who aspire to be our scientific and innovative leaders of tomorrow.

Bionow is a proud partner of this year's conference.
