The EU-Malaysia Biotechnology Business Partnership 2007 (EUMBIO 2007) is a business matchmaking project co-funded by the Asia Invest II Programme of the European commission (EC) and is jointly promoted by the Malaysian Industry-Government Group for High Technology (MiGHT) and two European partners: the European Association for Bioindustries (EuropaBio) from Belgium and the Association for the BioPharmaceutical Industry (BioFarmind) from the Netherlands.

The main objective of this project is to establish long-term business and technology cooperation by arranging one-on-one partnering meetings between biotech companies and research institutions (including universities) from the 25 member states of the EU and Asia/Malaysia, to formalise business partnerships such as technology transfer, R&D, trading of biotech products, venture capital investment, contract manufacturing, contract research etc., via the event. The emphasis will be on Bio-agriculture, Bio-healthcare, Bio-manufacturing, and Bio-informatics. The project is timely and aligns with the EU-Malaysia agenda to promote the biotechnology industry.

NIZO food research, one of the most advanced, independent research companies in the world based in Food Valley, the Netherlands, will participate in the International Conference at EUMBIO 2007.
