Oxfordshire Bioscience Network (OBN): Comprehensive support for UK Bioscience Business

OBN is the organiser of BioTrinity. OBN is a not-for-profit business network which provides comprehensive support for biotech and medtech companies in the Oxford and South-East England biocluster and beyond, providing networking, partnering, group purchasing, and information.

Partnering is achieved through the annual two-day BioTrinity biopartnering  and investor meeting, which in 2009 was attended by over 500 delegates from 16 countries who took part in over 750 one-to-one partnerings and watched over 30 company showcases, attend workshops, an exhibition and networking receptions.

Networking is achieved through a regular series of BioTuesdays, OBN's evening networking events which typically feature 3 speakers talking on a topic of business, finance or scientific interest. They are typically attended by 80-100 delegates from across the South-East.  About 10-12 take place annually.

Group Purchasing is achieved through OBN's Purchasing Scheme, which is managed by a specialist purchasing manager. OBN's Full Member companies achieve substantial savings on lab supplies, dry ice, gases and other commodity areas and services.
