Put your start-up center stage with our new Probiota Pioneers session

Our team of editors and conference producers is on the hunt for innovative new start-ups who are changing the face of the microbiome space.

The IPA World Congress + Probiota Americas 2019​​, held June 24-26 in Vancouver, BC, aims to bridge the gaps between cutting-edge science, business strategy, and key regulatory developments in the microbiome, probiotic and prebiotic markets.

The three-day event will bring together CEOs, academics and top researchers for otherwise impossible networking opportunities, in addition to interactive presentations and debates that look to share new data, drive new science, boost business growth and aid product development in the rapidly growing and overlapping fields of probiotics, prebiotics and the microbiome.

Calling all pioneering start-ups!​

There has never been a better time to launch a start-up in this field. As major universities look to spin-out and license key discoveries—and as global food and pharma businesses open up venture funds and external innovation programs and incubators to draw innovative entrepreneurs into their orbit—there are rich pickings for probiotic, prebiotic and microbiome pioneers in search of money, experience and a global platform for their ideas.

But how can you win in a competitive environment?
