IFBA Biosafety Conference “A Vision of Tomorrow”

Engage to Win” at IFBA’s Virtual Biosafety Conference

Conference Theme
The International Federation of Biosafety Associations (IFBA) is pleased to invite you to participate in our biosafety and biosecurity conference “A Vision of Tomorrow” to be held virtually from November 1-3, 2021.

The conference will bring together a multisectoral global network of leaders, policy makers, biosafety & biosecurity professionals, and front-line laboratory scientists to share their insights and experience. Together, we will examine the future vision of the World Health Organization’s risk-based approaches, bridging the implementation gap between policymakers and front-line professionals, region-to-region collaboration, and a strengthened biosafety profession, grounded in diversity, equity and inclusion.

Join us for this dynamic and engaging event, interact and connect with colleagues from around the world, and be part of the ideas and innovations that will define biosafety and biosecurity in the years to come.
