Highlights from the Indiana Pavilion

Indiana returned to BIO International with a coordinated statewide presence for the first time in six years, bringing together companies, universities, innovation districts and industry partners inside the Indiana Pavilion.

Across four days at Booth 3143, BioCrossroads helped lead conversations focused on the full arc of Indiana’s bioscience economy. Partners discussed how innovation districts are creating places for collaboration, how research institutions and industry anchors are moving discoveries toward commercial impact, and how Indiana’s manufacturing, logistics, and workforce assets support companies building and scaling in the state.

The week also marked the national introduction of BioHeartland Indiana, giving partners a shared platform to tell a more unified story about the state’s strengths across human health, animal health and plant science.
