Our next event

The inaugural annual conference of the Chinese Biopharmaceutical Association, USA – Greater Philadelphia (CBA-GP), will be held on October 15, 2023, at the Connelly Center of Villanova University (800 E Lancaster Ave, Villanova, PA 19085). The theme of this in-person annual conference is "Biopharmaceutical Innovation and Entrepreneurship," encompassing topics related to cutting-edge technology, drug development, the translation of biotechnological achievements, and entrepreneurship. We are honored to invite numerous heavyweight speakers to address the conference. Additionally, the annual conference will feature two segments: poster interactions and a biotech startup pitch competition. We warmly welcome everyone to actively participate (Note: To allow you to participate in these two segments, you need to register for the annual conference as well, thank you).
