AK BioRegio

The Bioregions of Germany are regional initiatives to promote the economic application of modern biotechnology in Germany. The Council of Bioregions in Germany (short AK BioRegio) is the central network of regional initiatives in Germany. It was founded in Leipzig at the beginning of 2004 and has been based at BIO Deutschland in Berlin since January 2009 in order to act as a spokesperson for the regional clusters and contribute to strengthening the field of biotechnology in Germany.

Today, 30 Bioregions have formed alliances through this council to optimize and coordinate their regional activities in the interest of German biotechnology.

The Bioregions are the local actors:

• Regional contact and multiplier for biotechnology issues.
• Basic work, support for researchers, founders, young entrepreneurs.
