"I attended not only as press, interviewing some company executives on site, but also as a moderator for two panels - one focused on cancer drug development, the other on AI."

I enjoyed connecting in person with life sciences leaders whom I usually hear from via email or the occasional Zoom virtual meeting.

"As an exhibitor since 2007, BIO is a \"must\" for our team. "

Whether it is catching up with colleagues, getting back in touch with prior clients, meeting our current clients face-to-face, or meeting potential clients, BIO allows us to do that all in one short week. I liked how you are moving the larger booths to the periphery so that those of us with smaller spaces aren't lost behind display walls.

"First BIO - surpassed expectations. Quality of networking, content program, and activity on the exhibit floor."

Quality and depth of the content program. There was something for everyone, regardless of specific roles.

I thought it was an excellent event. I noticed this year, increased focus on patient voice and patient centricity and bringing the patients throughout many of the, discussions and presentations. I greatly appreciated that shift in focus or increased focus. So thank you for that.

A BIO event that kept the focus on the patients.
What did you like best about the event?
I very much appreciated the many ways this year's BIO brought the voices of the patients to the foreground of the work that all of the attendees are doing.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
Some of the giant, gorgeous screens nearly shadowed the speakers as they were essentially backlit. Minor detail, and the screens were truly impressive.

First BIO - surpassed expectations. Quality of networking, content program, and activity on the exhibit floor.
What did you like best about the event?
Quality and depth of the content program. There was something for everyone, regardless of specific roles.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
Don't hide basic needs such as water (and caffeine) behind premium access; there were relatively few convenient options for these.

I liked how you are moving the larger booths to the periphery so that those of us with smaller spaces aren't lost behind display walls.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
With the partnering system, if there was some way you would only allow companies to reschedule, not cancel meetings they accepted or initiated. It is hugely frustrating to have so many cancellations.

What did you like best about the event?
I enjoyed connecting in person with life sciences leaders whom I usually hear from via email or the occasional Zoom virtual meeting.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
I would like to see more panels and individual talks focused on economic development challenges affecting states, regions, and localities, eager to build their life sciences clusters.
