The Agricultural Biotechnology International Conference (ABIC) inspires and encourages the research, development and commercialization of new biotechnologies to improve human health, create a sustainable food supply and foster new energy sources for all nations, including the developing world. Delegates come to network, learn and discuss issues of relevance, particularly for agricultural biotech policy and research enterprises for the good of the whole planet. The theme of ABIC 2010 is Bridging Biology and Business, with three streams: Energy, Health and Sustainability.
The two key drivers of present day agricultural innovations are IT and Biotechnology. Since their parallel rapid evolution in the last century, they have transformed the science underpinning the agricultural biotechnology sector which has resulted in unprecedented social impact. As with all tools, full potential is realized through human initiative. Concerted development of this agricultural economy can create a platform for increased global health and provide a legacy for future generations.
ABIC is an essential annual event for industry leaders, investors, policy makers, scientists, researchers and other professionals working in the area of agricultural biotechnology. ABIC provides a unique forum where the latest scientific advances in agricultural biotechnology are presented, and where future directions of the technology are highlighted and discussed. ABIC conferences inform stakeholders of advances, barriers and action options which may influence science and business endeavours on a global scale. The annual conferences provide an opportunity for international stakeholders to learn more about options, opportunities and dealing with challenges through direct exchange of information between stakeholders. The conference provides a forum for agbiotech organizations to demonstrate their capabilities and to seek investment, technology transfer and sales opportunities.
